The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office is confirming Amazon.com’s controversial 1-Click patent following a re-examination that lasted more than four years.

[..]

“This case may be a public relations boon for supporters of patent reform that have been calling for an overhaul of the reexamination system.”

I’m a supporter of patent reform, and I’m NOT calling for an overhaul of the reexamination system, I’m calling for an overhaul of the entire fucking concept!

  1. Can I patent the “pay at the cashier” concept? The at every shop, people will have to take part in a longer procedure.
