Punching Bag Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Patents are public of course but as someone who works for US Patent and Trademark Office I would not trust them to keep a secret even if they weren't. In my first month I got a "Dear John" letter. Someone broke in and took info I needed to provide for job and they would not give me free credit monitoring for a year.
