mutley 4,213 Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 Copy protection company Uniloc has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Laminar Research, the development company behind X-Plane. Uniloc claims that the Android version of X-Plane infringes patent number 6,857,067 describing a "system and method for preventing unauthorized access to electronic data." Uniloc is a serial litigator that has filed lawsuits against nearly 80 companies, including Microsoft, Adobe, and Sony. The company contends that its suite of copy protection patents broadly cover common practices for digital software licensing, protection, and activation.

brett 2,132 Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 Sad, I hope they win against this ridiculous lawsuit. There is a law against bringing up to many lawsuits, I hope they look into that too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 The world contains too many lawyers and politicians and too few scientists, engineers and technicians. Have I got a firm grasp of the obvious, or what? John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
