Apple patents the paper bag. Yes, the paper bag

[HTC]

This just in: Apple is attempting to patent the letter "A" as well as a dual patent on the letter "S" ...

 

[Melvis]

It isnt even April 1st yet!

 

[Frick]

To be fair, it's a paper bag. If it's unique enough, sure they can patent it.

 

[Nuckles56]

Shhh, don't say it too loud otherwise someone will create patents for all paper bags, including ones that kids have drawn on...

 

[Devon68]

Yeah I wont get one untill they release the version that has Wi-fi and bluetooht and wireless charging. I can already see the commercial.

And I wouldn't be surprised about the public outpouring in pre-ordering it at only $50 per bag. And I suppose the top of the bag won't actually have an opening in it to put things in, so it can be classified as a waterproof and courageous design, to herald in a new era of... something or other.

there'll be an opening but you'll have to buy a $30 adapter to put anything in the bag.

Apple will next patent the cardboard box and UPS will sue them to oblivion and then bethesda will sue me and I'll countersue and get all 3 companies money XD

At that price I won't be able to afford one new, I'll have to wait a few Gens, and get an old bag

This seems to do away with the 3.5mm jack as well. Question is now: Thunderbolt or Lightning connector? And will it store my purchases in the iCloud? That would be very convenient indeed.

No. It will cost 3$ to make and will cost 49.99$ just because of the apple logo. You need a steady hand to draw an apple.

Yes, you've read that right, Apple patents the humble paper bag. Mind you, coming from a company who patented the rounded rectangle I'm not surprised.

It is a paper box bag... pull the handles and the box opens... Great for hiding what is inside... this idea most likely came from the head of apple retail... you know the woman who left Burberry's to work for Apple...

and it is original... ever been given a box with handles at check out?

They will change the bag every couple of years so everyone will know that you're too poor to be hip.

I'm thinking about sending my idea to Apple.....

The diagram seems like it's a patent for a particular fold. Still, quite retarded.

Apple fans can now get the smell of a freshly unboxed Mac without having to shell out huge amounts of cash.

For just $24 (£19), aficionados of the Cupertino tech brand's products can get a candle made to smell like a 'New Mac'.

The bizarre product, which is available globally, is being sold by Apple accessory maker Twelve South.

So much ridiculus clickbait. I can link 100 bullshit things microsoft and google have patented too. This isn't news, except to the people ignorant to the patent system and the fact that if you dont do this, 300 million dollars later you're licensing it from a troll.

Apple has some of the best patent enforcement policies in the industry, yet people would prefer to play political name games instead of strive for improvement. Pretty disgusting.

Apple fights a patent troll and everyone dogpiles on the hate train, newegg fights a troll and everyones kickstartering a pity fund. This isnt how you fix things, this is how you maintain the trump clinton status quo of getting screwed, but i guess thats what we deserve for being so blind.

Worldwide the "American Patent system and Authority " are Generally held and Viewed with Contempt

Why
who Allowed the patenting of round Squares
who allowed the patenting of Paper Bags

You may Feel justified to come here and complain
if
GET AMERICA TO PUT ITS PATENT SYSTEM IN ORDER FIRST then it may gain some worldwide Credibility
Its the American System that Resulted in Apple Suing Samsung sueing broadcom suing
oh if its something .com.
its Being Sued somewhere in America

And in the time you took to read the post 2 more got Served with patent infringment law suits probably in East Texas
