chairman, ranking member tillis, members of the subcommittee. good afternoon, and think it really to discuss -- and thank you for the opportunity to discuss. i want to thank the subcommittee for undertaking the task of modernizing the statute which in essence first appeared in the patent act of 1793, and when madison and jefferson were drafting patent laws. a lot has changed in the world of technology since 1793, and courts will be forgiven for struggling to apply an 18th-century statute with 21st century technology. our founding fathers were brilliant. but even they did not anticipate dna processing or the internet. the current state of section 101 law is the result of many quick decisions over the many decades trying to determine whether these modern technologies fit into categories defined in 1793 or whether they are subject to certain exceptions courts have imposed since then. these quick decisions also have resulted in certain de facto rules such as diagnostic techniques for example generally not eligible for patent in the united states. th

tillis: director? >> good afternoon chairman coons , raking member telus, numbers of the seventh -- telus, ranking members of the subcommittee. i'm going to go totally off script and just speak a bit about stepping back. first of all, on the question of whether the law is broken and whether it is still broken and whether various courts are doing a better job of interpreting it, you do not have to go back any further than just the last month to find yet another agreed just district court decision. this is in the bio case. in a situation where the invention is not at all abstract, does not preempt any part of science. it results from many hundreds of billions of dollars of r&d. i do not fault the district court. they are doing the best they can found the invention ineligible under section 101. so what does that mean? i don't know what they will do without appeal, ib they will refer to recent history, but now you got a company that has no access to funding because it has no profit opportunity in the futur

maria: jonathan, north carolina senator thom tillis said his office received a threatening voicemail is pushing people to call the members of congress and callers like this who communicate threats against elected officials could be committing a federal crime the communist chinese aligned company is proving how dangerous the current ownership is. if you hear this message that thom tillis received on his phone and his office is incredible the person says i'm going to shoot you if you ban tiktok i'm going to come get y you. >> i believe he posted the message online for everybody to hear but where we are we've seen the full power of what the app can do in the flood congress with calls and death threats and suicide threats. it's really gotten out of control coming of 170 million americans on this app with a major information operation and many called the malware, spyware not all of it is true but it can compel political action and people is giving people the capacity to dial those numbers and they press a button on the app and they can get to the congressional office and then you have thr

that being said, one senator, senator thom tillis, said people have been calling his office, which ofnd can do, but not when the messages sound like this. listen to this. it's pretty visceral and stark. watch. >> okay. listen, if you ban tiktok, i will find you and shoot you. >> reporter: and, look, we have seen a rise in threats and scary voice mails like these, calls to offices rise over the course of the last several years. we track the threat rate through the capitol police that keeps track of what these look like. we have seen an increase in recent years, but it's important for us to, a, make the point that it's not a ban on tiktok, but, but, what senator tillis is saying in response to putting out this voice mail, he tweeted, this is a voice mail my office received last night. tiktok's misinformation campaign is pushing people to call members of congress, and congresses like this that communicate threats against election feels could be committing a federal crime. he punctuated that tweet by saying great work, tiktok. in terms of what goes forward in terms of legislation, katy, t

colleagues by thom tillis who said yesterday he's worried about the unintended consequences of a bill like this. it's been fascinating to watch the battle with tiktok in d.c. because republicans rate large have been some of the biggest agitators against to talk. some of that changed when we had donald trump himself, the president who put the first executive order forward to ban tiktok came out and said a few days ago maybe we should not do that because it would give meta-too much power so we have some rain billing here not only over whether or not this bill addresses concerns or if national security concerns have been made clear to the lawmakers but how much power this would give the government, this would give the executive branch in ruling over the private sector. ed: in that moment, the house passed the bill, there was a big spike in meta-. but of course, tiktok's use or base and its platform is highly analogous. alex as done a wonderful job of covering all of that. an immediate pullback. so sources say tiktok intends to exhaust all legal challenges before it considers any kind of
