Hi Filip,
Thank you for the questions and allowing me a chance to respond.
First, this is why non attorneys like Raúl Kripalani are dangerous and should be ignored. Let me address the patent applications you’ve provided.
Again, those are applications, not patents. Second, what non-attorneys don’t know is an applicant’s prior art is used against them in a patent application. The application claims priority to 2–1–2016. That means every disclosure in the world prior to 2–1–2016 is prior art, including all of React. But beacuse Raul has no training outside of ignornace and mass hysteria, he doesn’t know that.
Turning to US9646028 and US9400822, those are GraphQL patents (thanks Lee! haha). I read the prosecution history. The examiner rejected the patent applications until Facebook added “social network” to the claims. If you are building a social network using GraphQL, I would be interested in these patents.
While their claims are quite narrow, these deserve more thought and consideration. Let me research these prosecution history further. I’ll probably write a new blog post this week about it. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!
