Take a minute to think about it!

"There is no protection against the patents of your competitors other than a massive counterthreat. It's all about balance of terror, like in the Cold War."

"Software patents would be negative for most of us. In fact, even some of those who demand or defend software patents today would deeply regret it later. It would only be too late then."

"Software patents would give the arch-enemies of Linux and open source enormous anti-competitive leverage, and would keep Europe's infrastructure dependent upon the software products of a few American companies."
