EFF: Vermont Is Mad as Hell at Patent Trolls
The Electronic Frontier Foundation has sent out a
release about how the US state of Vermont is going on the offensive
against patent trolls. "Not content to strike back against a single
troll, Vermont is also poised to pass a bill dealing with the problem as a
whole. The Vermont House and Senate recently passed a bill to combat 'bad
faith assertions of patent infringement'. And the latest word
is that Vermont's governor is about to sign it into law."
