| A few months ago, we pointed to Joe Mullin's excellent article detailing how
| various patent attorneys were finding a lucrative side business in
| registering or buying their own patents and suing companies themselves. It's
| just that much more lucrative. Mullin is back, describing two Silicon Valley
| patent attorneys, Dominic Kotab and Kevin Zilka, who have been registering or
| buying a bunch of patents, and have been quite active in both setting up
| multiple shell companies, and suing many different defendants.
