This is a legal US and International Patent, granted by the US patent office and is legal and binding.

There is one way and one way only to get it turned over and that is through the courts and this is Acacia's gamble.

Have they come after the porn industry at random, did they just throw some names into a hat and go for them? No they're professionals who have been through the court protecting patents and know the system.

Look at the way they are being challenged by this industry. IMPA are the best we have put forward, where are Cyber Erotica, Adult.com, Private, Score, Bang Bus and a lot more Multi million dollar companies (If I included you in that list wrongly I appolagise, just trying to illustrate a point) . All sitting it out waiting for IMPA to win so they can carry on doing business without paying royalties or helping towards attorneys for those who are fighting FOR THEM.

Acacia chose this industry because they knew it was an easy target and has anything happened yet to change their mind?

You want to shout and swear at Acacia, fine but put your hand in your pockets and put up some money. Before Acacia put their hands in your pockets and take it from you.
