That is very interesting. If you say that is the case I can't dispute it (without doing a lot of work I don't have the time or inclination for), but if it is widespread it calls into question the integrity of Chinese patents and their patent system as protection for IP. My guess would be that granted patents would have to provide worthwhile legal IP protection in China, and beyond, if they are worth fighting for. Their patent system is just a sham if they are not. That is what a patent system is for. And if it is not meaningful all Chinese industries that actually have patented their IP are at risk - not just AP. I think, it is fortunate that, from what I can see, AP's patents are US patents.
We'll just have to see how it pans out. Some things you just have to take as valid, otherwise you bury your gold under a rock.
