Patent Trolls

Coming off hot the heels of a study by Hastings Professor Feldman that more than half of all patent lawsuits are being brought by patent trolls, Google, an obvious target for NPEs, is trying to get the FTC and DOJ to take a closer look at what all these lawsuits is doing to competition. Interesting considering that Google is also defensively buying up companies like Motorola so they can grow their own portfolio – be it for defensive or offensive reasons.
