- logdap 3y agoAnd most patent trolls are just a few jackass lawyers, not large established companies like Nokia.
- acdha 3y agoI drew the opposite conclusion: > The patents were at the center of a legal dispute involving Lenovo in 2020, in which the computer maker claimed Nokia did not fully disclose its intellectual property interest to the ITU and ISO while the bodies were working to standardize H.264. That lawsuit was settled one year later, with Lenovo and Nokia agreeing on a cross-licensing agreement. That looks like patent trolling to me: sue someone who’s not really in the business and settle so when you sue a bigger player you can tell the judge that this other company did the right thing and paid for your incredibly critical technology.

- GJR 3y agoThe earlier victories won't have been reported.
- tpmx 3y agoNokia going patent troll on small companies would not have gotten press? That is not very believable.
