Yet the startup and the judicial system already lost time on this. There should be a fee for withdrawing cases like this.

- cbd1984 12y agoCareful: It's hard to craft remedies against patent trolls that don't also penalize poor inventors whose work was really and truly ripped off by a much richer entity. Even simple rules like "loser pays" can make the potential downside of filing a valid suit so intimidating that large players get a complete pass.
