Stephen Colbert explains US patent priority

Outside the U.S., whoever first applies for a patent will be entitled to a patent on the respective invention (assuming the invention is patentable). Here, we have a different system. The first person to invent the innovation is entitled to the patent protecting it. Steven Colbert was kind enough to explain that to his audience here. Enjoy.

  1. That's among the funnier discussions of patent law I've seen.
