If you can't afford to pay for a lawyer, then you should not be in the adult industry. Acacia is the least of your problems if you can't afford a lawyer. Acacia can't put you in jail. The Justice department can.

So precisely how much is your lawyer estimating that he/she will charge you when Acacia takes you to court? Have you been advised that you may also have to pay Acacia's court costs?
And what makes you think that a court mandated settlement is going to be acceptable to you? And what's your bottom-line going to look like when you've been through the same process with all the other patent holders waiting in the wings?

I never suggested that Acacia was going to receive any specific amount. I merely suggested that the amounts that they are demanding are insane. Do you disagree?
