| What journalists are missing out on is that
| H.264 is a patented codec, and that the
| patent holders expect to collect royalties.
| The last H.264 patents expire in 2028. Mr.
| Blizzard draws some apt parallels with GIF
| and MP3, and the problems caused when
| patented, royalty-burdened technologies
| collide with a supposedly open and
| unencumbered Web. This is a must-read for
| anyone wanting more good information and
| less not-well-informed cheerleading on
| these issues.

IPWatchDog Patent Lawyer Sued by Invention Submission Corporation
,----[ Quote ]
| Patent lawyer Gene Quinn has been sued
|
| by Invention Submission Corporation
| (dba Invent Help) in the United States
| Federal District Court for the Northern
| District of New York. The complaint ...
| alleges that I have engaged in false
| and misleading advertising that has
| cost Invent Help business. They
| apparently do not like the fact that I
| have written about invention submission
| scams and have recounted the many
| stories that I have heard from
| inventors who feel they have been taken
| advantage of by Invent Help.
|
| Quinn is a notorious (but inarticulate and
| inept) defender of the patent system...
