Yes but that's my problem here, FX clearly not the inventor here, more like seeing a opportunity in the open ( patent not filed ) and grabbing it.
Which is also OK, but i will personally call it a parasite like behaviour.
But that's just me, and rest assured there is a lot in the world that raise strong feelings in me. FX = small potatoes.

1. To be fair, the OP never mentions FX, so it could be ____________.
2. Patents can be bought and sold.
3. Al Gore said that he invented the internet!

patents have a finite life, i think 15 years state side. This can be re upped I believe also. the crazy part of this while applying for a patent means you litterly have all your wash hanging out in the open until approved. I have had a couple items snitched this way so I do not even bother with it anymore due to the cost up front and then any litigation down the road. My pockets are not deep enough to defend anything. If I can sell the item to a larger deep pocket mfg , then I make out. When You apply for a patent there is some protection until a ruling is made on your design but if xyz changes some detail and applies its off to the races.

My old friend Ken Austin felt the same way. His dental Eq. company ceased doing patents in the early 90's. Instead they chose to design their equipment in such a way that smaller competitors could not make "knock offs" Use lots of costly castings and molded parts. That worked for several decades, enter CHina where castings and molded parts come cheap. Change, it is the only constant.

There is nothing wrong with being a boomer. A lot of people never make it to boomer status.

True dat. The green side...that's the side of the grass to be looking at. It's good to be a boomer, I can think of lots of worse things.

I am no gen ( some letter )
I think as a 66, if anything i am a premature child of the summer of love,,,,, even if there was never one little bit of hippie in my mother.
The pandas never really exited me very much, so i am good in this regard.
