This Could Save Many Lives: Let's Patent It

,----[ Quote ]
| Just one problemette: he's decided to patent the idea, along with his clever 
| old chum Nathan Myhrvold. 
| 
|     The filings were made by Searete LLC, an entity tied to Intellectual 
|     Ventures, the Bellevue-based patent and invention house run by Nathan 
|     Myhrvold, the former Microsoft chief technology officer. Myhrvold and 
|     several others are listed along with Gates as inventors.   
| 
| After all, can't have people just going out there and saving thousands of 
| lives without paying for the privilege, can we?

Bill Gates, top Microsoft executives do some of their inventing on the side

| Bill Gates and several of Microsoft’s top technologists are credited as

| surprise. But here’s where it starts to get unusual: The applications weren’t
| made on Microsoft’s behalf.
|
| [...]
|
| Here's what we know: An entity called Searete LLC applied for the patents.
| Searete is part of Intellectual Ventures LLC, the Bellevue-based invention
|         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| house run by Nathan Myhrvold, Microsoft’s former chief technology officer.
| Myhrvold’s company has stirred controversy with its large patent hoard.

Top Microsoft Execs Moonlighting For a Patent Bully

,----[ Quote ]
| "TechFlash reports that Microsoft bigwigs like Craig Mundie and Bill Gates
| (when he still worked there) have been secretly moonlighting at Intellectual
| Ventures (IV), the 'patent extortion fund' run by Bill's pal Nathan Myhrvold.
| A Microsoft spokesman confirmed that its technologists have been sitting in
| on IV-sponsored 'innovation sessions,' where their pearls of wisdom were
| captured and turned into patent applications for Searete, an IV shadow
| corporate entity. And if all goes well, Searete will soon enjoy exclusive
| rights to the fruit of the brainstorming, which includes processes ranging
| from determining and rewarding 'influencers' to treating malaria, HIV, TB,
| hepatitis, smallpox, and cancer."

Bill Gates and friends apply for electromagnetic engine patents

,----[ Quote ]
| The patent applications, made public today, were filed by Searete LLC, which
| is part of Intellectual Ventures, the Bellevue-based invention house and
| patent company. Nathan Myhrvold, Microsoft’s former chief technology officer,
| runs Intellectual Ventures and is also named among the inventors on the
| electromagnetic-engine patent applications.
|
| That suggests the filings resulted from one of Intellectual Ventures'
| brainstorming sessions, in which Gates has been known to participate.
