China always gets criticized for having weak IP enforcement. I was thinking
they should turn it around and make it a virtue: no patents here! And
encourage other countries to do likewise.
As it is WIPO is aiming for world domination and there is little in the way
of principled opposing force.

So a serious question: is there a software company friendly jurisdiction?

It won't help, if you want to sell into the US or other jurisdictions that

is the right to prevent others from making, using, selling, or importing
the protected idea.
