California doesn't have to pay for US patents?
"Edison believed that he had a monopoly position on moving pictures, as he
was the only one with a camera. Two Greek entrepreneurs called upon Robert
Paul, a British electrician and scientific instrument maker of Hatton
garden, London.They asked him to build a number of replicas of a kinetoscope
that they had acquired. To his amazement, he found that Edison had not
patented this invention in Britain, and he went on to produce a number on
his own account."
