If you're not looking for a patent yourself, but want to make sure that
nobody else pulls one on you, you may want to look into the USPTO's
Statutory Invention Registration program. It basically creates a public
domain patent of your invention so nobody else can "invent" it and claim
priority.

So the problem is :
