capitalism = slaves & poverty for the majority.
your picture does not make me feel sad, what is sad is the people of Africa(and other suppressed nations) do not wish change. there inaction to protect there own people to resist and fight oppression is what is killing them. corporations, are only adding fuel to the fire with free handout's it assures these place's of poverty an depression will remain in poverty and depression.
now as par the topic, its never going to happen the ITC is not going to halt trade over a patient dispute the worst thing that could happen is sony winds up paying a large fine and will start paying licenses fee's.

Capitalism = freedom
The answer is not to get rid of capitalism, there are a lot of theories on how to level the playing field, but removing capitalism just gives the power to the government...and the government has way too much power as it is.
Personally, I think the answer is law enforcement...enforce every law to the letter. I know this would never work because of all the insane laws we have, but that is the whole point...if a law cannot/should not be enforced against you, then it should not be enforced against anyone else either...and it should be removed from the books. There should be no exemptions made for specific people, companies, or products...if it is legal to jailbreak (to allow for the use of 3rd party code) an iPhone, it should be legal to do it on any device. Of course, that is just my opinion.

Really?
I mean Really?
They waited 5 years to pursue a lawsuit?
If it didn't bother them when the PS3 launched then why even bother 5 years later?

the image is of children dying of aids because the USA & its corporations blocked generic drugs, so unless the worthless people of Africa could cough up several thousand $ their future wasn't very bright.
patents & copywrite are evil, which is more important, human life or profit?
Could trade rules spell the end of lifesaving cheap Aids drugs?
& the USA is trying to block generic drugs yet again.
And when these kids grow up with the aid of a generic drug, that slows aids bio degradation. they'll have children there children will have aids the wife that maybe didn't have aids will no doubt have it now, there children will seek to aspire to better things and will head to free country's for education and with them they will bring there disease. the ripple effect will spread rather quickly...the maker of these generic drugs will be the ones having the last laugh, they'll have a client base of over 5 billion.
it sounds cruel, but its better to cut off the diseased arm than let it spread to the rest of the body. less the diseased arm can be cured. permanently.
on another note,
you call patients an copyrights evil, but fail to realize the maker of these drugs have patented there findings..ultimately halting a progress to a cure over a petty drugs technique to suppress aids.
all drug maker's profit on the disparity of people affliction, be it aids or a common cold.
