This is the sort of patent suit that I find revolting, and I suspect I'm not alone on HN in feeling that way.
But does anyone else see a continuum between this and the dustup over the 5-word already-derivative "stay focused & keep shipping" poster last week?
Should we be upset about this and not that?
- aiscott 15y agoUS citizens at least, should be upset about the state of patents in the US. I don't begrudge companies playing the game--for them it is a fact of life in US business. What I take issue with is the granting of such trivial patents in the first place. edit: (non-trivial --> trivial)
