Hello,
As I understand it, a patent gives the patent holder rights to exclude others from using the patented thing in a commercial product, but does it prevent someone else from making and using something for personal use as a hobbyist? Could one infringe a patent just by blogging about using or making something covered in a patent for example, even if it were not for sale?
Also, has the 'optimizeip.com' website gone?
