This anon is related to Edison, and also became a researcher and have worked with Intellectual Property re: scientific "invention." Lotta Edison-hate I've seen on here and on half, claiming he was a fraud who "stole" the inventions of others, so I thought I'd share the above links. I'll talk some about IP too, since it will become increasingly relevant as China's theft of it comes more and more to the fore of our work here.
Didn't know Edison personally, obvs, and heard he was a bit of a tyrant as a boss, but it's unlikely he contributed nothing to the success of his company, it appears he was an actual inventor. Yes, he took investments from cabal bankers, but he appears to have bought the patents to initial inventions he didn't himself create, not to have stolen them. And if you want to do business in the area of R&D, you need loans from banks because it will be awhile before you have a product to fund your overhead; taking loans/investments from the cabal doesn't mean you're in the cabal.
Two types of inventors, generally: the abstract kind than envisions entirely new ways natural laws can be understood or made to function, and the practical type that devises useful applications for our existing understanding of natural laws. Edison seems to have been more a practical inventor type than the abstract type like Tesla. Which is why Edison also became successful in business. POTUS's uncle was a chemist, and POTUS clearly has a practically innovative mind, which is why he, too, has been so successful in business. Invention also isn't typically a one-off type deal, but happens at many levels involving many contributors. From spitballing to proof-of-concept to production. Another reason POTUS is successful is understanding how to manage big-picture projects, which team-member is best for which job, how to get them to work together on an overarching, long-term goal. That kind of executive oversight in Q team's work with us is apparent to me also.
For a given product, there will typically be a large portfolio of patents. Patents for proof-of-concept, and for specific applications, and for this or that tweak/adaptation, and for this or that production method, etc etc etc. My speculation is (based on the evidence we have) that the type of tech knowledge China steals from us is typically late-stage practical stuff, i.e. copying whatever final product we got into production phase. This short-sightedness will work to our advantage, bc they won't have banked the foundational knowledge to reinvent new stuff. Much easier to prove someone stole your ideas when it's literally the same product down to the detail. A little harder if they can claim, "hey, that foundational science you got there, that's just an idea anyone could come up with. We did too! But these new products we developed are totally our own, promise!"
