    I don’t know much about this stuff… But if I’ve understood patents right; Someone else can’t patent your idea if you can prove you have had it and used it before them, right? I know some good stuff like the 3-point safety belt was patented and then free to use by any car maker in the name of safety. Is that what is going on here?

    The patent part just feels a bit off to me. What good is a patent if you are not going to exploit it?

    I just don’t get it. I need a grown up to explain to me.
