It's a shame the courts can't revoke some of these patents that are completely full of shit. You'd think if a troll would just lose once, it'd be over.


The problem is that it takes someone fighting a lawsuit for hundreds of thoudsands of dollars to get a patent declared invalid (and it's never a sure thing) , but only a few hundred or thousand dollars to get a new patent.
