That,s it, I’m writing a ubiquitous program, moving to Texas, then suing anyone who uses the same letters in my code. Will someone please fix this patent nonsense? Basically, it’s now part of companies’ business model.
Apple, Samsung, Sandisk sued over MP3 – iPod/iTunes – Macworld UK Little-known Texas MP3 Technologies is taking on Apple, Samsung Electronics Co and Sandisk with a patent-infringement lawsuit. The suit, which came to light over the weekend, was filed on 16 February in Marshall, Texas. The eastern Texas city is fast becoming one of the leading locations of patent infringement lawsuits in the US thanks to speedy trials and juries that more often than not find in favour of the plaintiff.
Once again….Texas, on the forefront of lunacy.
