Exploitation of intellectual property systems for the manipulation of academic reputations - International Journal for Educational Integrity
Patents are sought by academics and their institutions to protect their inventions. Academics also seek patents to enhance their individual profile and status for the purpose of job and promotion opportunities. Some institutions recognize the awarding of a patent to an individual academic as equivalent to or sometimes greater than publication in an international peer-reviewed journal. This article addresses the concerning development of patent inventorship credit (or credit that might be viewed as inventorship credit) being offered for sale by established education fraud companies alongside offers for authorship on academic papers and thesis writing. This article focuses on design registration in the United Kingdom (UK) but the issues identified are globally applicable. We characterize in detail the footprint of eight firms that are likely involved in the sale of thousands of UK registered designs to Indian academics for the purpose of academic reputation manipulation. Unlike patents, design registration applications are not examined for novelty or individual character (i.e. for whether the designs are actually new or innovative). Due to this limited examination process, these registrations generally issue quite quickly. We argue that exploitation of intellectual property systems should be considered one facet of the global enterprise of education fraud, alongside essay mills, diploma mills and research paper mills.

Thank you. 🙂

Yeah, I haven’t found anything that really works either. But with all the hype and promises, this is one thing I’d love to delegate.

Fishing for insider secrets. 😉

Latvian excellencies have also discovered the address of the local Statistics Bureau. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Apparently, feeding their models with unconsented personal data now passes for science.

One thing to consider is that the only good reason to manipulate an image is to make it show something that it didn't show in the first place. Perhaps what was there originally was not background? A defect? A particle? Someone's watermark or label from another paper.
