It turns out that each country will issue patents to foreigners, just as to its own citizens. So in fact, in a place which has this scourge of software patents, foreigners can own those patents. There are lots of non-US companies that own US software patents, so they are all welcome to get involved in the fighting in the US. Of course it's we Americans who become the victims of this. Meanwhile, in India, if there are no software patents, that means both Indian companies and foreign companies are prevented from coming into India and attacking people with software patents.
