Now lets assume, that such a 'deep state' would  actually exist and is located in fact somewhere deep down and has all these patents, but does not like to pay something for the inventors.

Then this 'deep state' would be thirty years in advance in terms of technology, because patents protect the inventions that long.

After thirty years the patents are released, but not very beneficial anymore for the inventors, because they protect only for thirty years.

Now you need 'spies' in the patent offices, which warn the deep state about new developments and to reject unwanted inventions.

Such agents need rewards, especially if the inventions are important.

And one among the eligable rewards is fame.

The death of Diesel could be squezed into the same theory, too, by assuming, that energy in general and petrol especially is in the interest of the 'deep state' and efficient motors were regarded as dangerous. And threads or heritics have to be 'removed'.

 Politics is a profession.
 There is a caste of individuals who live in opulence and never work. They are content to pay the judges, the deputies who make the laws, etc...
 They live as the Pharaoh lived, through the sweat of the people.
 But the great miracle is not there, the great miracle is that the people themselves largely agree.
 If an opponent stands up and makes a remark about the fact that it is not normal to pay rights of way on the highways (racket worthy of the time of the Lords), he is immediately singled out by the people themselves , and denounced.
 It's even worse than you think, a human society.
 This also exists in science, and I think that the Einstein-Poincaré example is also a good example: the guy who tells the truth, that is to say that Poincaré's brain was worth ten Einsteins, he gets threatened
on usenet.
Don't laugh friends, it's true.
 It's simply incredible.
 “1984”, “Brave New World”, it’s no longer really fiction.
 

Well, I'm afraid your correct.
But what can we do?
My proposal: we need to change the future!
This is actually very easy and goes like this:
if 'bad guys' have time-machines, we could make the use of them really dangerous by very simple means:
Simmply use (occasionally) a coin to decide what you do.
think about two possible activities, which are both equally good for you. Then flip a coin and do, which action you had assigned to either side of the coin and which side comes up.
This is simple, but would alter the future, hence make all predictions about the future worthless.
This is actually good for 'good guys' because those have no time machines and are therefore not threatend by 'future manipulation'.
But 'bad guys' apparently use 'time-travel', what is a VERY powerful weapon.
You and everybodey else could make that a little more adventurous, if you decide to make thinks only better and nicer that necessary and if you bring an element of unpredictability into the world, which is based on flipping a coin.
