I’d love to see a charity formed for the sole purpose of challenging these patents in courts. Crowdfunding can go a long way, and strategic legal wins can go a long way in shaping precedence. Many organizations dabble in these challenges, but it needs a singular purpose.

These joke patents are relatively harmless. The real problem is the "good patents" which can actually be enforced and used to stifle competition.

Not an organization for challenging in court, but "crowdbrain" support for people who do: https://patents.stackexchange.com/ https://patents.stackexchange.com/
