Yes, he has a PhD in physics as well as being a practicing patent attorney, a skill he put to use over and over in the past 20 years. We don’t have to guess how this org will behave, we have plenty of history upon which to judge their sincerity.
If they want to give the patents (note the plural there) for the benefit of mankind, they can do so. They are not doing so.
Ok but why would he just “give” them? Patents can cost like $20k a pop to prosecute.
Because he's pushing to have the technology covered by his remaining patents to be required by law. Do you think this is OK?
No, but I don’t think he should be forced to give them away for free either. That’s literally an unconstitutional “taking”
