I figured this would happen --

BUT

Brad Shaw is probably right... Like these lawyers have a fucking clue about the technology. I was downloading video before these guys ever knew what a computer was. If anyone would have first use or patents it would be IBM.

Mark my words -- these lawyers have no clue about first use -- there will be no way to delineate first use. To define video you really have to look at resolution, frame rate, etc... You could go all the way back to Pong with this if you wanted to

. Way before anyone was downloading video by BBS, the academics and research labs were doing video over internal internets, etc. This whole thing is silly. You watch and see this Acacia stuff is all smoke and mirrors.
