Summary: Montenegro becomes another satellite state for EPO crooks to buy voters from; it is no secret that voters are up for sale at the EPO as we saw a month ago (Montenegro’s vote counts the same as all of Germany)
=> no secret that voters are up for sale at the EPO | we saw a month ago
THE EPO is like an occupying force of organised crime, expanding the scope of corporate occupation for overseas companies. In exchange for monopolies the regime bags and gambles away money, much to the chagrin of European citizens and mostly to the benefit of other continents. This is allowed to persist because of the litigation “sector”, which profits from chaos, not order. It wants more litigation, not more innovation. The vehicles of this coup are failing politicians like Benoît Battistelli and António Campinos, who proudly violate all the rules in pursuit of quick “cash” (no matter if it dooms the long-term viability of the Office).
=> EPO | Benoît Battistelli | António Campinos
As per today’s puff piece (warning: epo.org link), which mentions “EPC” six times, they look for more “enablers” in the Administrative Council and while constantly violating the EPC they pretend to stand behind it, adding insult to injury. As we showed in our most recent series, they try to compel/force examiners to grant European software patents in violation of the EPC.

“It wants more litigation, not more innovation.”
Thankfully, according to a publication from today, staff will continue to refuse to play along, to the extent feasible. This resistance will carry on and be “active until end of September.” If not longer…

“Work to Rule” actions continue
Dear Suepo members,
770 staff members participated in the ballot on the “Work-to-Rule” actions among which 90% voted in favour.
The Action Plan is therefore approved and active until end of September.
No strike action was proposed in this ballot in view of the survey results showing a preference for the “Work-to-Rule”
More information on how to participate in the “Work-to-Rule” actions can be found here.
Your SUEPO central Committee

EPO staff actions need to go on and on, not putting up with illegal orders from rogue management
