P.S. 2: May be, a lawyer can enlighten us, about all this. Anyone there? Any successful precedent case? Here is a legal figure named "amparo", that could be useful. We must investigate.
The key is simplicity.

I was reading this page:
http://www.eagle-research.com/nopatent/patfree.html

I am excited about that. But I have some fears...

What if some big corporation get patents all around a world and start a persecution against us? against little producers?

How to fight, to defend us?

I wait some answers.
The key is simplicity.

hmm subject/topic should of been:

Open Source Vs. Patenting Vs. Copyright


too late now.

The reality is companies will not have anything to do
with a invention that is not patented or patent pending.
The potential legal liabilities are to high.

Brian this is why I don't know why these inventors even waste their time on patents. This is like patenting a cure for cancer (which there are many) and hoping some company will have a dig at it. This is even a mute example as the cure is probably a very specific chemical combination while a gravity wheel for example is something that can be altered to avoid the patent license.Some user named Pirate something had the best solution if you went after money. Forget about patents. Just make use of your head start and try to sell as much as possible as you can while you can until others pick up and start competing with you. I personally hate competition as it's something very evil. But that's the only solution if you are money hungry.

On the other hand if you want to go full open source and have no direct plans to sell the machine youselve. Your best bet for some money to buy bread is making a clean, simple straight forward website with all the info, theory and plans of the device. Put a donation link and see people's good will at play. I know quite a lot of websites that have donation links open for certain causes and get in 2 000 USD or more in donations each month. So I speak of experience unlike some closed minded people.

This is also the option I would go for.
