    "Honestly, I think it's a sign of desperation," said Jason Schultz, a staff attorney at the Electronic Frontier Foundation. "Acacia knows the hammer is coming down on its patents, and it's going to extract as much as it can before the apocalypse."

      Washington College in Chestertown, Md., was told that by Acacia that a minimum annual license fee of $5,000 was likely to cover the company claims it's owed.

      They are only asking $5000 a year?

      The game is almost over for these losers. Time to move on to the next bad patent.

              acacia is just fuckup.
              SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

                We were lucky we got attacked by such a bunch of clowns, maybe the next company with a flimsy patent to extort with will not be so stupid.

                We go off lightly.

                        It's not the Colleges and Universities that they have to worry about. Public institutions of higher learning are subsidized with tax dollers. Amounts are usually determined by the state legislature. As it is, the yearly budgets of most Universities and Colleges are very tight and there isn't much room for extortion.

                        If you mess with the university system, you mess with state government. If enough state senators bitch, the federal government will take notice and may take a closer look at US patent laws.

                        Let 'em sue. They don't want this fight.

                            Well to me this reads as good news.

                            To me it shows that after the Marksman ruling(Did I call that right?) they are backing away from adult, now they know we aren't "low hanging fruit".

                            Sadly the colleges and universities are the next target.

                            I think we should lend them a hand and team up.

                            Kick Acacia in the ass so hard the will starve in mid air!
