You really a programmer? How can you confuse patents in other fields of research (like drugs) with the ones upon software? Will someone have patended the idea of binary rapresentation (it's really original, isn't it?) rapresent a good patent to you? What about patending the "addition" or "subtraction" algorithm? What about patenting verbs and nouns, or a original combination of them (phrases) and prevent others to use them?
