Have you read the article text or just the headline? The article says the same thing you're saying (trill dropped the case) & cites legal costs already incurred by then as being a burden on mycroft.

[Edit] Ok you've edited so my reply no longer makes sense, but one case or two there would be legal costs to mycroft regardless.
- throw34778314 4y agoMea culpa for kneejerk commenting. The article is a little confusing though; what actually seems to have occurred is: 1. Patent troll entity filed a suit in east Texas, c. February 2020 (https://web.archive.org/web/20200410225148/https://mycroft.ai/blog/troll-hunter-mycrofts-position-on-patent-trolls/ https://web.archive.org/web/20200410225148/https://mycroft.a...). 2. Same patent troll entity dropped the first suit, also c. February 2020 (https://web.archive.org/web/20200305135828/https://mycroft.ai/blog/patent-troll-update-1/ https://web.archive.org/web/20200305135828/https://mycroft.a...). 3. Same patent troll entity filed a second suit in Kansas City on February 18, 2020 (https://www.bizjournals.com/kansascity/news/2020/03/30/mycroft-ai-voice-tech-patent-infringement-suit.html https://www.bizjournals.com/kansascity/news/2020/03/30/mycro...)

This second suit seems to have substantially cost Mycroft.
