- tzs 11y agoHow did you come to that conclusion? The companies involved do not appear to be doing any of the things commonly required by the various definitions of "patent troll". Most definitions require one or more of the following: • purchases a patent and enforces it • does not practice the patent itself • has no manufacturing or research base • focuses solely on enforcing patents This group comprises companies such as Dolby, Philips, Mitsubishi and similar that do have both research and manufacturing, are patenting technology they developed, practice the patents they develop, and have plenty of business other than patent enforcement.
