"If Twitter does deal with patent-infringement lawsuits, they don’t have too many patents to lean on to countersue. That does put Twitter at a disadvantage.”
And there's the rub.
- nhebb 13y agoThat's only the rub if the plaintiff is a producing entity. Some of the patent litigation has been from NPE's, and in others I can't imagine that there is often a tit-for-tat counter suit opportunity. My gut feel is that this article is taking a hot topic (the twitter IPO) and blowing one angle of it out of proportion.
