Another reason for not allowing Software patents in Europe :-/

@Ne1 with enough money
If the Patent exists, buy it and make it available under a BSD-like license - or keep it safe for 51 years and don't enforce it. Thanks.

Contrary to beliefs, Americans do not own the Internet

Therefore their Patent is worth nothing in Europe or the rest of the world
