This is an
example of memetic warfare – in a very simple situation
Assertion:
The protection of new intellectual property needs to be mediated by a new third force, not the PTO.
Blocking Meme:
Some might say that this sort of radical argument, even if meritorious, is not going to find a receptive audience amongst municipal financial supervisors and project managers.
Deception and distortion of position to increase the
viability of the Blocking Meme
Financial supervisors and project managers will not support the assertion particularly when they learn their paid consultant proposes authoring the "third force" to be responsible for policing the consultant's IP.
( No one suggested the policing of IP by this force, in fact the BCNGroup Charter and the long term discussion, by the BCNGroup Founders, has focused on exactly the opposite effect. The use of language “policing” and the misrepresentation of intentions are done in a dishonest way. But this dishonestly is likely not understood by the person developing the blocking meme. For that person the meme expression takes over the thought process and requires whatever behavior is necessary to support the blocking meme. )
Supporting Meme to the Blocking Meme:
I am certain you can see the inherent conflict of interest in this approach
( Of
course this statement is a ploy, used to disguise the obvious fact that the
BCNGroup Founders do not see an “inherent conflict” stemming from a broad-based
and open scientific mediation of new patents in the Knowledge Sciences. The reason why the PTO is seen to have
failed in software patents is because the scientific issues, related to process
modeling and computer algorithms, have been confused and the community of scholars
has not been involved in the decisions made by the PTO. Moreover, the mapping of the memetic
expression of inventors using latent semantic indexing and ontology
constructions would re-enforce the judgments of a community of scholars.
