Those patents are comically moronic. I normally wouldn’t root for Google, but I hope they get them overturned.
I'm with you. I really hope google goes out of business some day (doubt it), but not like this.
really dumb patent, Pretty sure DLNA/UPNP media rendering with remote controller and server devices were well established when this "touchstream" mob claim to have patented casting from one device to another.
Yeah, I've been using DLNA for years, and it has been around for much longer. Looks like it has been around for 20-ish years now.
Fuck patent trolls. Patents should only be public domain after a few years and you have to have a working prototype to prove you can even do it.
Exactly. I'm no fan of Google, but I think patents in general should only last as long as needed to recoup the initial investment.
The same should go for copyright as well.
Of course this is a ruling out of Western Texas. Thankfully Google can appeal to a more sane court and hopefully get this obvious patent troll's verdict thrown out.
I wouldn't be so sure. Google has lost another case with Sonos, also because of patent infringement. This isn't the first nor the last time.
Google should have fought to have the patents invalidated.
I'm sure they took it to the nonsense ptab
Probably filled suite in 2017 and got delayed by Google for years. Idk watching Google rip everything off has made me more of a supporter for patents.
Those are dumb fucking patents. I hope Google fights this to the end and gets them invalidated.
Patent trolls are scum
