Sure someone could patent the process.. if that someone actually invented a working model of the process.
Star Trek folks couldn't say they had the process first because they didn't have an actual process.. just a studio with smoke & mirrors..
Then... you could become a lawyer, join a lawyer club, buy the patent from the holder and charge everyone using the process, and claim that it includes:
1. Beaming an individual in real time; leaving point (a) and arriving at point (b) in full form.
2. Beaming an individual in compressed form from point (a), then storing said individual in a 'ziplock limbo storage container' until such time as you wish to have said individual appear.
3. Beaming could include beaming of the full being, or just the voice.
4. Anyone possessing the phone number of a company/individual
using the beam machine could also be charged an amount determined by the patent holder.
So clean out your garage, cover the windows, go buy some electronics kits and get to work!!
