Given that the remaining patents that Monsanto holds on the trait I believe you are referring to expire this year in the USA, and already expired three years ago in Canada, isn't it a bit late to be getting worked up about the theoretical potential of being sued over something that they have never tried suing anyone for before? Using roundup on a field that was "accidentally" cross-pollinated with the patented trait has been a big no-no, but who does that anyway? The cases that have gone to court were pretty clear-cut patent violations, not simple accidents.
