Every program I run in Windows has an about box. A perfect place to put it.
There is also the documentation that comes with the application. The
installation program, which usually has some kind of license agreement you are
supposed to read.
Not to mention it's very easy to embed text into an application, I do it every
day. Every application I run has a copyright notice in it. Are you saying it's
harder somehow to add a patent notice than it is to add a copyright notice?
At the very least, if a license agreement is required to install/run an
application, that license agreement should indicate the patents involved. Which
of course would still result in millions of people infringing by not reading the
license agreement. But notice would have been provided at that point and willful
ignorance is not a defence. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
