In my mind, the issue isn't the ability to buy IP and sue, but the fact that there is shitty IP out there that can be bought and misused. The best IP a non-practicing entity gets is from legit companies who sold off their IP or lost it in bankruptcy. When that happens, it's just monetizing the R&D the company invested in. The big issue is dogcrap patents that granted to garage inventors with way too big a scope or after there was already a ton of prior art. The trolls take those patents and then extort the shit out of everyone they can.
