Comment How much more video tech is still patentable? (Score 1) 39
If you look at all the maths involved there should be prior art for virtually everything. Considering how embedded video is part of the modern internet the whole thing should be blown up as patent free and get it over with. We have to use inferior technology in Linux distros due to overly broad patents to the point that even animated gifs were patented in the past, we basically have brute forced all algorithms now with the patent space.
