I am so thinking of fucking with Acacia if they start any shit in the UK. I am seriously thinking of just pissing them off a bit by issuing a legal action in the UK, which they probably wont attend, and I will win on default guilt by no show.
This wont solve the problem but could be mildly amusing. I could go for something that Acacia Research is palming thmselves off as a media company and people may mistake my legit loved company for those scum bags.
Shall I take them to court and just get one judgement against them in the UK? It is only £500 to do it, it will mostly be a waste of time but amusing none the less.

HAHAHAHA, pretty funny.
I hate to be the one to piss on your bonfire but...
1. Simply stating that they are claiming to be a media company doesn't make it fact. You would have to prove that they are palming them off as such and you would have to show where the confusion exists.
2. They probably do have representation in the U.K., so they probably will show up.
3. You will most likely lose, in which case you could get a judgement against you for their legal fees.
I have a better idea. How does this sound: We all come together as an industry to fight Acacia's current attempts to enforce patents that both the defense group, and the IMPA, believe are invalid, thus ending this whole mess all together?
