1. Acacia Technologies' digital media transmission patent, which the company defines as covering "the transmission and receipt of digital content via the Internet, cable, satellite and other means." The EFF is worried that Acacia, which has already sued several large communications companies, is unfairly targeting small audio- and video-streaming websites.

How has Cacia unfairly done anything?

Acacia needs to go down, their patent I think is overbroad and shuold be recinded, but I do not think anything they have done is unfair - if it was there could be legal actions to remedy the "unfairness".
