A patent on patents.
The only logic conclusion to the ability to patent ideas.
Next week:
A patent on an idea for an idea on a patent.
Next next week:
Everybody has to pay everybody else for having thoughts.

From the claims, it reads like a patent on using computer to perform computer
espionage to convert an ordinary patent in the pre-grant review process into a
patent that covers a competitors product. Additionally, the espionage company
gets an equity interest in the results. It is a computer version of the Rambus
submarine patent technique.
It is somewhat curious that Haliburton is
applying for such a patent ... I can't imagine what you would do with this
patent if computer espionage was not involved. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Many, many times - when the USPTO grants yet another ridiculous patent, someone
will suggest getting a patent on trolling with it, just because that’s the only
thing anyone can think of that would be the next step up in ridiculousness.
Halliburton actually went and tried it; USPTO granted.
Just goes to show that you can’t even dream up anything more ridiculous than the
USPTO.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

I guess the USPTO didn't check to see if this is new. They
must truly live in a cave.
