It seems obvious that if I USE something patented, such as the patents applying to the display device on which I'm observing the words I'm typing, I'm not infringing upon anyone's patent. Perhaps the display device's mfr is, but I am not.
Where have you been for the last year?

Acacia are hoping we don't come together so they can pick us off one by one. Get the Porn Video companies involved, they have money, get the big boys involved. Acacia will spand 10 million toget 1 billion if we let just the present guys at IMPA fight it for us.
