I hear ya on trying to work around the Acacia and other video patents, but another patent that lingers out there, is PanIP who has a patent for the graphical and textual presentation of information on a video screen for making a sale..transalation, selling stuff from a website.

Their patent is at: http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-...RS=PN/5,576,951

This website http://www.youmaybenext.com is trying to bring a group of defendants together to fight against this patent.

And judging by their message board, there is another company (http://www.internetretailer.com/dailyNews.asp?id=7838) that has similar patent claims.

The more you read about these patent (abuse) cases, the more and more your head hurts...

There should be a Congressional study on how much money is lost by businesses every year on patent litigiation, especially the statistic where the patent was found to be invalid.

Actually, the more I read this shit the more I think about opening a hosting company in Ghana or some other lawless country! Anyone interested in that?

Try the Czech Republic, good connections and courts that would laugh at this.

Is it any wonder that the EEC is starting to look very closely at the software patent issue?

I will wait and see how they plan to get me in the EU.
Possibly lose a domain but I will have a backup domain setup and ready to go.

And then another....

Hi,

I'm serious about moving my stuff. Do you have any suggestions for hosting in the Czech Republic? I need a dedicated Windows server and use about 350 gbyte a month.

How slow are Czech hosted sites from the U.S.?
