Patent on Patent Trolling?
Authored by: Anonymous on Tuesday, June 05 2012 @ 09:15 AM EDT
If they had a patent on the business method of patent trolling?

I know who I'd be rooting for in that fight.

They are ratfinks who think they are entitled to large payouts and they have
lots of strange contracts between them, transferring patents but keeping rights
back.

Sound like there are lots of reasons they might sue each other. Say Oracle wins
and gets its costs awarded too. I can see Lodsys suing someone who had
encouraged them to take on this suicidal case.
