@lispi314@udongein.xyz @davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @jes@outerheaven.club it’s probably not the fault of patents in this case, it’s bad naming of the Linux driver – Wacom should be within a more encompassing graphics tablet thing, but it looks like Wacom was what the most encompassing graphics tablet thing got called

@u0421793@toot.pikopublish.ing @davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @jes@outerheaven.club Oh I meant the fact that they had a practical monopoly by gatekeeping a foundational technology. Which is indeed the entire point of patents (and why they're harmful).
