Unless they are contributing LARGE to IMPA (on the quiet) I say we avoid all of them. Today and in the future.
Send one of them bankrupt and it will stem the flow of rats.

Unfortunately, Paul, it's not a perfect world. I know right now why some people are signing.. Beacuse if for some reason they lose, they will be FUCKED for YEARS of back infringement, and for companies grossing millions, that's no small matter. They are trying to preserve their business. Sure, Acacia is extortion to the max, and it SUCKS that people ARE signing, but there IS a reason for it.
It's pretty easy to take the shots when you aren't even subject to them, but in the world of business, sometimes everyone has to do things they don't like.
I don't like the situation any more than anyone else does, but for cripes sakes, why is everyone SO busy fighting internally? Why aren't we staying focused on the real enemy, who is Acacia?
