(I don't have diabetes, but my dad does, I probably will someday, and my cat does too - even though he's adopted!)
I'm not a lawyer, but I am good with intellectual property and contract law, and I can easily find expert representation in that field.
I don't want to give much away here, but I can see a good half dozen ways around the LifeScan "agreement" for their protocol. (That said, if you're planning to reverse engineer it yourself, and you can do so without ever agreeing to that agreement, and especially without looking at the PDF or text versions of the "official" protocols, don't look!)
I don't have time to do the reverse engineering or write code. But if anyone's interested in setting up a legal clearinghouse for the Lifescan protocols as reverse-engineered, let's chat privately. I have some ideas. |
