IMO, that press release had statements that were misleading people to believe that they would be protected by sending traffic to Hustler. Ken clarified that this is not the case and I thanked him for his candor.

If Acacia had solid patents then why do they need to make threats and sweetheart deals to bring people on board? Why aren't they going to Microsoft for billions instead of spending millions to deal with us "low hanging fruit"? Why do all the people who settle say "i don't agree with the patents but I am settling anyway for business reasons"?
with all these questions you have its odd that your first post to me in this thread was over how uninformed I am. Are you asking me why I felt the need to expose you as a lightwieght in this business after explaining how *I'm* uninformed?
silly kid.

well, with all you've achieved so far, I don't blame you.

Yes, my grapes are sour. what is it you do in this business again? you're an employee for some smalltime adult site? yes, I'd rather be you.

ah yes. how dare multi million dollar corporations do other than what you want.

Let's put this bickerfest behind and wait until after our day in court to see who gets in the final "I told you so".

Gee, if you win in court how exactly will vivid and hustler be hurt? I missed that part.
