Basically, if the US can claim jurisdiction either by virtue of launch or nationality of components or by international jurisdiction, then the patents are enforcible in the US.
- sneak 14y agoNot _exactly_ related, but... As more and more Americans realize that there is a life after the USA, I have a feeling that we're going to see more and more jurisdictional straw-grasping by the US government. Maybe I'm searching for a pattern where there isn't one, but this comes on the heels of them requiring tax payments of people who've expatriated, as well as seizing .com domains registered by foreign nationals at foreign registrars...
