Acacia loses in court to Microsoft
Microsoft won a patent victory this week against Acacia, a company accused of being particularly aggressive in its litigation against major companies. The company files patents and then pursues them in court but had not gotten as far as a jury trial with any suits until now. The jury did not rule in favor of the patent company.

I still remember calling these ass fucks up and asking them what domain I was infringing their patent with. I laughed my ass off when the domain they gave had never even been a website, it was only a parked page. They tried to tell me they had lots of people doing research looking for patent infringers. I'm sure they meant to say they got lists from a few adult companies.  What a fucking joke those asswipes are.. |
