Patent Troll

A patent troll continues to prevail in its lawsuit against Microsoft. Given that the underlying patent at issue is absurd and that the troll company has (in my opinion) done nothing to advance technology, this lawsuit illustrates once again how far the patent system has spun out of control.

One possible benefit: maybe Microsoft will support a rationalization of our patent laws.
