Patented things can't be public until you have applied for patent. Only exeptions are usually only about cases where the patented thing has become public because of some malicious activity (of others).
Nope - not true. Unless you by "rest of the World" Means Mexico.
Some even go public with the idea before its patentet. Because if you have a recorded public appearance, it gives you a timestamp. And others seeking the same patent, must show they have a working prototype at the same time or sooner.
