It's not. It's pretty informative on patent trolls, with people like the Rackspace general counsel being interviewed and calling it an extortion game.

#6John does a good job of explaining the difference between software patents and traditional hardware patents to the layperson. He notes that while hardware patents are usually very specific, software patents can be so general as to cover ideas that the patent holder "had never even dreamed of". He also strongly implies that the US Innovation Act " rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Innovation_Act>, after being passed by the House, was killed in the Senate by lobbyists representing trial lawyers.

Someone posted this tool for the last John Oliver video (Snowden's Interview). Some more digging finds that:
>Apparently Foxtel has the rights to the show in Australia, so the clips get region-restricted there. The show airs on Sky Atlantic in the UK, but the YouTube clips are unrestricted there after the show airs [1]
