Patent 8,671,776 issued 24/3/2005, filed 1/4/2004, Business Method of Intellectual Property Rights Manipulation

Abstract: A patent is constructed such that it applies to all the obvious methods in a field of invention. By relying on an underfunded USPTO examination board, the patent is obtained. Legal threats ranging from the subtle through blatant are directed at all companies doing business in the field. One successful settlement is required before the patent expires. Optimax algorithms show the best return when trading off breadth of application versus likelihood to pass USPTO.
