    And how would that hurt?

Baseless litigation that takes you away from programming.  Most likely
the victim would be American, although anyone in a country that has
accepted the WIPO treaty is at risk.

    Could you please explain what the problem is that you are talking
    about?

Baseless litigation by someone who wants to hurt and who `makes a
mistake' so the penalties for fraud are not imposed by a court.
