Comment on A simple no-brainer approach to patent trolls

Comments

An alternative would be for a bunch of like minded companies to band together and form an alliance. If one of them gets trolled, the others contribute to their defence. "One for all, all for one." You'd want to trust your allies, or put some limits in place to keep flagrant patent breaches outside the agreement.

Don't some insurance companies already do legal expenses insurance?

It's a great idea, but it faces the small problem of solving nothing if all the participants get trolled, which they likely will.
