Isn't the purpose of a patent, to prevent others from copying you and to discourage people from even trying in the first place.
Why keep it a secret ? If you trying to protect something why not let people know up front it is patented. The only reason I can understand why people are reluctant to disclose their patents is because the want people to use them so they can wait for a big pay day and cash in on licensing. Wait till people are dependant on them and it cost them to much to find another way, where as if they knew up front they would have found a different way from the start.
I am not talking about shit like if you patented something like the " baconwave " for microwaving bacon. Who here cares about that, but from what I hear you have patents that most of us are using. So why wont you share them then ?
