This is intentionally obtuse, how is something going to gain traction without being hosted on services that are answerable to the US before someone else were to patent it and start the process.

Tell people down the pub and upload it to what? Pirate bay? Tiktok?

It would be incredibly difficult, the law is ripe for abuse.
