Quite the opposite, actually.
Patenting Life, NYT Op-Ed by Michael Crichton
read the article and yes very good points. Perhapse dna could be viewed like how atoms are, since they are a building “block” they cannot be patented.
Much how you cannot patent Atoms like hydrogen, however you may patent a “process” for using/creating Hydrogen.
but only the process... not the actual product.
It would be like a patented process for fracking, just because you use a patented process for fracking to make more natural gas you cannot patent the gas that flows into people’s homes...
