As magicalist notes below, the author of this story is an investor in Vringo. Separately, given the allegations in the Ars comment thread: http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2014/01/court-orders-google-to-pay-1-36-of-adwords-revenue-for-infringing-patents/?comments=1&post=26124477 http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2014/01/court-orders-goog... I'm more than a bit suspicious of a brand-new account that's posting pro-Vringo comments.
