Look something's wrong. Let's blame it on Putin. Let's not blame it on the weapons manufacturer's who wield powers to influence decisions on who should join NATO. Why do we need to spook Russia by starting the process of adding Ukraine to NATO? Why do we need 3% of GDP as defense budget in peace times? Why does everybody think about this but not ask?

Some of it is possible because US govt. provides Pakistan with multiple billion dollars everywhere to aid them in their fight against terror. Irony

I like the order in which they named the culprits, Apple, Microsoft and Google, while referring to dominant browser vendors. EFF, please do what you preach. Be honest and accurate. If you have a soft-corner for Google because it pays money, Google has a soft-corner for technologies which give you money. Of course the free-as-in-beer leering majority at HN loves Google, so bring it on with the downvotes.

Are you retarded? You asked source for 'Using SEPs for suing others is wrong.'. The source for the fact that it was SEP's involved is already in my post.

You're right, which is what's generally considered an abuse of monopoly. No opinions from me on this- but funding or subsidizing other businesses using a market dominant business constitutes abuse of monopoly.

Does google hire like astroturfers with all their free stuff? I post one comment and I'm downvoted without explanation? Source for what? Are you dumb? It's an opinion. Opinions don't have a source. You can't murder someone. Source for that?

Well, they are the only 'convicted patent troll' in the right definition of the term: http://www.idownloadblog.com/2013/09/06/apple-google-motorol...

Using SEPs for suing others is wrong. Google has learning marketing ploys from IBM, place ads in influential tech blogs, get lots of good PR, the same blogs will call anyone a patent troll but Google.

And because I know this will come up- Patents are not evil- the system is broken sure, people misuse trivial patents, but at the same time, people who put hard work in their work need to be rewarded (for meaningful patents). If I'm an academician and I've spent 5 years coming up in my life with something innovative that would otherwise have taken a lot of time, then I should have the option to sell it to someone who is better equipped to monetize it. It's like an author hiring a publisher. So patent consortiums are not trolls, they are like publishers. Google is because they misused SEPs.

Sidenote: I'm against those kiddish patents that are just about 'describing at technique in which x y z'. I feel the patent overhaul should involve the FTC creating a team that would decide the 'year' validity of a patent, and companies having to pay for it. That notwithstanding, Google is a troll. And just because it gives out free stuff, you guys like it.
