If any of you have a suppressed technology. Don't tell anyone until it is developed into a useful prototype. File for a US Patent and IMMEDIATELY publish ALL details. in every forum you can find.
If you do this BEFORE a Secrecy Order can be imposed, "they" will have to grant you a filing date and grant a Patent or they risk having others file in "First to File Countries" where, unlike the US, don't care who actually invented it first although they generally respect US filing dates to identify "Who filed first!" In other words the US would lose the ability to regulate and tax the invention royalties.
If a Secrecy Order has already been put in place, it becomes moot (irrelevant) if someone anonymously posts it all over the Internet. If the inventor has disclosed to multiple third parties, (such as Patent Office Employees and Issuing Agency employees!)...who is to say who might want to do such a thing!
No one has ever even been convicted of ignoring a Secrecy Order in cases where the invention had no US Government Funding Involvement. Prosecution is even less likely in the majority of cases where the link to National Securtiy is tenuous at best. |

| Good advice. If you don't have the cash to hire a patent attorney right away, you can still make a patent disclosure, which outlines the technology you developed and your intention to file a patent. It stakes your claim so that no one else can claim to have come up with the technology first. And document everything you did leading up to the discovery, especially including dated notebooks with all your results. |
