I think this is much more complex than a simple name copyright violation.

However I do not believe tha acacia will win this unless people roll over. I was downloading dirty animations and very small video clips from bbs' when i was in my early teens. Which while I am young, was well before 1992 when this patent was filed.

I spent some time reading the extremetech video forums and dont know if this guy is full of poopoo or not, but finding good examples of prior art is (imho) what this entire case will hinge on.


Might be worth passing this guys info onto those who are involved in the first wave of litigation.

My company (www.gcomm.com) was the FIRST to come out w/ online video streaming (for adult) and even pre-web (dial-up), that I think constitutes "prior-art" which invalidates patents. I don't particulary care for the adult industry (wasn't in charge when that stuff was developed), but I care even less for those who try to screw others with BS patent suits. Do you know who I can contact about this? please reply to sysop@gcomm.com because I probably won't come this way again...
