Statements on any infringement are opinions.
Is someone stealing another’s invention? Statements about invention infringement may be incorrect. Expect errors. Don’t necessarily take any statements about infringement as fact.

Please
be careful when reading statements saying or suggesting that there is an
infringement. It is not always easy to clarify if someone is or is not stealing
an invention. Perhaps only a small
improvement to a product was illegally copied from an earlier inventor.
Maybe
there was no infringement at all. An
alleged infringer might actually look like they copied an inventor’s patent
application. But the earlier patent application might not have properly or
fully disclosed the alleged invention concept.
That is, an earlier filed patent application cannot support arguments
for infringement unless the earlier patent application describes a product
later made by a copycat.
Ways
to determine if there might be infringement:
• Compare
the earlier and later patent applications. How to compare the alleged first
inventor’s patent filing with later patent filings from possible infringers.
•
Find an honest patent attorney, as there are intellectual property matters to
consider in determining any infringement.
•
The “Claims” section of a patent application: The “claims” describes in one
condensed sentence what is unique about a patent application. Claims are what the inventor claims is their
unique idea. Just imagine some inventor
invented the old tricycle concept - the tricycle patent application’s claim
could be for the third wheel. Look at
the claims for the 3rd wheel versus the entire patent application,
which includes known technology such as wheels, pedals and gears.
• Paid and free patent infringement tools are available. While these intellectual property tools may not be designed specifically for determining infringement, they can help establish if someone invented something prior to a certain date. The world's largest known patent application family with Innovation Institute, LLC is one such tool. This currently free patent infringement tool enables key word search by proximity, along with use of the Matrix.

Other
Important Intellectual Property Disclaimers:
• Patent
Fraud: An issued patent can be invalidated.
Causes of patent invalidation include patent applicants fraudulently
failing to list earlier inventions the later patent applicant may have lifted
(stolen) without giving proper credit. Claiming to be an inventor when one is
actually just a copycat can have serious financial risks including triple
damages.
•
Intellectual property laws differ by region and country. However international
organizations such as WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organization) and the
Paris Convention are trying to harmonize intellectual property laws between
countries.
•
Business laws differ by city, state or province, and country.
•
No Advice Being Given: Sites with authorized links to this site are not giving
legal, business, engineering, intellectual property (IP) or any other advice. They
are brainstorming about possible innovations, etc.
Brainstorming
Beta Ideas – Don’t Confuse “Beta Content” With “Fact”:
•
Brainstorming Has Errors: Authorized sites linking here brainstorm (see www.BrainstormRights.Com) about
innovation, inventions, business and more. Brainstorming is about opening doors
to innovative options, and perhaps not quality control and perfect fact
checking.
•
Nothing Verified: Do not presume statements on web postings and via other
communications are verified. Material is beta content (see www.BetaContent.Com). Focus is on
establishing open discussions without being held responsible for errors.
Innovation
Institute studies in the US, Europe, Latin America and Asia since 1984
establish that excessive worrying about errors reduces creative thinking.
• Readers
MUST verify any information before they presume it as fact. As possible infringement is very complicated
it is very possible the reader will get incorrect information.
Find
Honest Patent Lawyers:
Beware
of tricky patent attorneys working to charge hourly fees. Get multiple opinions. Also get free patent
advice from government agencies at www.ElectronicPatentRights.com
even if you believe your honest patent lawyer to possess impeccable ethics, and
practice law from the highest bar. Even honest patent attorneys make errors and
might be unduly influenced by seeking to find ways to charge high patent legal
fees versus setting out of court. Ask how dishonest patent lawyers profit by
suggesting that another inventor invented something first? Tricky lawyers may be tricking you into
believing you have a chance to win a law suite but it might only be 3% and at
what cost?
Provisional
Patent Rights:
Infringement
upon patent pending inventions can be called “Provisional Patent Infringement” www.ProvisionalPatentRights.com.
Don’t confuse “provisional patent rights” with “provisional patent application”
though. Provisional patent rights can also be called: possible patent rights,
prospective patent rights, patent pending rights, etc.
Never Say Someone Is Infringing: Innovation Institute suggests to be safer that one state another's property is "perspectively infringing" at best.
