Good points. In addition, this is a company of 22 idiot lawyers with little money to spend. Let's bleed them dry. If you are more than a few hours from So California, ignore them. They don't have the staff or the money to deal with a jury trial in a million different jurisdictions. They are at our mercy to cave in to a threatening letter. Considering that they didn't have the resources to even verify if a site had video, it's obvious they are desperate.

Give the lack of research in to which sites have video, I'm betting they spent as much (little) effort doing prior art searches.

The letter is only a letter.

A lot of you have been sent packets with invalid contact info.

You have not been served.

Do not do anything rash.

Check on the boards and keep up to date, but more importantly.... focus on making money.

Things are happening behind the scenes that many don't know about and I assure you that it is not time to panic.

The letters you have received are not a summons to a court preeding. A packet from Acacia does not mean you have been found guilty by our judicial system of patent infringement.

I know it sounds basic but don't feed into the fear of pending litigation when you don't know if that's going to be a reality.

I will be coming out with more specific information later. There is a reason you are receiving letters and not being served.
