    It took 6 years to get it approved, but lots of stupider patents still stand.

    You can’t count on common sense for stuff like this.

      No one ever bothers stepping on the toes of patents like these, so it’s entirely possible that it wouldn’t hold up. It’s not a guaranteed win (nothing is), but doing nothing just lets corpos step all over artists in yet another way. We need more people, like Ross from Accursed Farms, to stand up for us, and we need devs willing to fight back against these ridiculous patents.
