scope of a patent

Read a random definition: bail-enforcement agent

A quick definition of scope of a patent:

Scope of a Patent: The scope of a patent refers to the extent of protection that a patent provides. It is defined by the claims that are allowed in the patent. In simple terms, a patent gives the inventor the exclusive right to make, use, and sell their invention for a certain period of time. The scope of the patent determines what exactly is protected by the patent and what is not.

A more thorough explanation:

The scope of a patent refers to the extent of protection that a patent provides to the inventor. It is defined by the claims that are allowed in the patent.

For example, if a patent claim covers a specific chemical compound, the scope of the patent would be limited to that compound and any other compounds that are similar in structure or function. The patent would not protect other unrelated compounds or methods of using the compound.

Another example would be a patent claim that covers a specific device, such as a smartphone. The scope of the patent would be limited to that device and any other devices that are similar in design or function. The patent would not protect other unrelated devices or methods of using the device.

These examples illustrate how the scope of a patent is defined by the specific claims that are allowed in the patent. It is important for inventors to carefully craft their patent claims to ensure that they provide the broadest possible protection for their invention.

I wouldn't say trauma, the trauma would probably come from seeing my friends head get crushed by an LTV and feeling the bag of glass that was his skull in my hands. Or knowing a kid I mentored shot himself with a bullet he used to keep around his neck that I allowed him to have illegally.

Winter is tattoo season because you are less likely to be in the sun exposing the healng tattoos, you dont go swimming or tanning in winter either so you don't miss out on the fun stuff of summer

@snow: healing is super easy it takes like a week to get through the bad part but being in the sun or going in water is a no no so if you get it in the summer that is two weeks at least of no summer fun while winter it doesnt matter

Only dirty people get infections from tattoos, higher chance of an allergy to the ink. Just go to a legit shop
