Comment Neelie (Kroes)

Making speeches talk

excerpt from: What does it mean to be open online?

[...] Indeed, whether you're talking about audiovisual works or scientific information, current systems don't respond nearly well enough to online realities. And these are both areas we are looking at, including through updating EU copyright rules. And through new recommendations on access to publicly funded scientific research results and data.

I would like to add the current patent system to the list of systems that don't work in the online world. It slows down innovation rather than helping it.
