That's the author's point -- she was working in a field where there was plenty of active work going on, but after meeting with google, the big G tried to patent it.

Well, if the Exploratorium published a book using paper circuits before Google applied for the patent, is this prior art?

  • Infuriatingky, it’s pretty hard to use non-patent sources as prior art under the US system!
