"But software isn't patentable, is it?". That's actually a dangerous misconception. Maybe one source of confusion is the statement in the EPO guidelines that computer programs are excluded from patentability "if claimed as such". In the video I'm explaining what that actually means.

Thanks to Christian Winkler for the great comment!
