Patent suppression — the deliberate withholding, blocking, or acquisition-and-shelving of inventions through legal, corporate, or governmental mechanisms — is a documented phenomenon with both verified and mythologized d

H_4_11 — Classified Science and Declassified Programs

Governments routinely classify scientific and technical research on national security grounds, creating vast bodies of knowledge that are inaccessible to the public, the scientific community, and democratic oversight for
