  These shouldn’t hold up. Wouldn’t the prior work of thousands of generations of mothers invalidate such a patent.

    “Excuse me madam but do you have a license to use those tits? No? Didn’t think so. The content of those bazongas is Nestle property. I’m afraid I’m going to have to clamp those nipples until such time as the proper Bandonkadonk subscriptions are paid”

      As long as the tits aren’t used for commercial purposes you don’t need a license. Anyway, I doubt that in Europe you could patent any naturally occuring molecules in any kind of milk.

        You can patent pretty much anything in Europe.

        However, enforcing those patents is a completely different affair.

  Something doesn’t add up here since you can’t patent anything for decades.

  • jadero@mander.xyz ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    I read that as:

    For decades, Nestle has been patenting milk proteins.

    They’ve been doing it for a long time, not somehow getting extra-long patents.

    Seems like I messed up carrying over thoughts over language barrier.

    Where was I unclear?

    • bort@feddit.de ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      patents expire. so nestle shoudln’t be able to “patenting human milk proteins for decades”

      source

      • qyron@sopuli.xyz ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Patents can be renewed, to my knowledge, and “for decades” as in “since the 90s”.

        For decades may as well be anything from 20 years up, afaik patents may live for 50 years so this seems to work fine

    Imagine Nestle executives finding a time machine and going to all of history’s most famous persons’ mothers and telling them how they can’t breastfeed their kids.

    Someone should definitely write a book about that
