lpv:translated text	"After a deadlock sustained by the mobilisation of the public against software patenting, Parliament declared itself in favour of the report. I voted against the directive. This project is useless; there is no justification for it because no one asked for it, apart from the multinationals, who want to hold on to their monopoly! Under the pretext of protecting ‘invention’, patents will eradicate innovation. By voting against this project we are refusing to support such manipulative behaviour. This is because this plan, even if amended significantly by Parliament, is still dangerous. Its very name: patentability of computer-implemented inventions, allows software to be patented. If such legislation had existed at the time of Mozart or Beethoven, authorising the patenting of musical works, then the whole of our world heritage would have been undermined at its very roots. The system of copyright currently covering software should continue to be enforced because this alone guarantees that authors remain justly and permanently rewarded."@en1
