When companies are not able to produce enough to satisfy demand and are actively stopping selling to certain sectors and harming them, they should lose their patents. RAM companies are actively harming all of us by selling their products to the AI companies and leaving us all without RAM, so we should encourage alternatives.

So patents are stopping the whole market competition thing, like what how capitalism is supposed to work and all that.

Only way how capitalism works is that the rich are just becoming the richer by exploiting the poor(er).
