Honestly, the EFF should be IPR-ing all of these instead of complaining about the patent system in general.
It sounds like the lawsuits over this patent are probably for minimal amounts of money.
- monsieurbanana 3y agoI completely disagree, complaining about the patent system is a good thing to do, that doesn't preclude doing something else too. I also don't see why the amount of money extorted matter.

- iamjfu 3y agoIn this case, complaining made me aware of the issue. I've known about patent trolling but not this particular kind. So complaining is a form of raising awareness which could be a good first step if system reform is needed.
