Driscoll's set out around 15 years ago to turn blueberries into China’s next big food trend. By 2020, it was cranking out thousands of tons of blueberries for Chinese supermarkets.
Then came local competition and IP theft. Read more: on.wsj.com/4BtoUyb

@WSJ There shouldn't be an IP on what someone can grow on their own land. Glad that China pulled it off.

@WSJ Lowkey, IP on food is best argument against capitalism.
China made food affordable and the WSJ is pissed. Let this sink.

@WSJ Driscoll’s has no one to blame but themselves. They saw the Chinese disregard IP protections in every other industry operating in China, but they just couldn’t resist the profits. Pure stupidity.

@WSJ Blueberries are native in China. They might even have been originated from China in the first place. Driscoll just want to have the monopoly on something that the nature created. Evil scumbags.

@WSJ “¡Oh poor thing!”
#Driscolls the ones who have use child labor, exploited, underpaid, for decades. Modern slave work. While they made billions.
Well, then…
#Driscolls have a seat and try the next fruit dish named: Bankruptcy.

@WSJ No one should OWN the right to grow food. No matter how much it cost you to develop the variety, it belong to EARTH and ITS PPL.
Also, LAB GENETIC MODIFICATION IS A CRIME THAT MUST BE STOPPED.

@WSJ Going into the Chinese Market you have to assume that your technology will be stolen. Even domestic companies assume this and are constantly moving and innovating to stay ahead of their competitors.

@WSJ This just proves nothing is safe from the Chinese. China would rather steal than do the hard work to invent something on their own. Imagine what they could do for the environment if they tried.

@WSJ China steals IP constantly. There are requirements to give the government access to IP in order to manufacture in China.

@WSJ This is what China does. Been doing it for decades or longer. They are copyists. They will buy old stuff use that technology and make it cheaper or better also. That is why they buy used things and ship it back to China. Seeing God made the blueberry its Gods Patent not mans.
