This week’s Patently Obvious report focuses on the patent holdings of Uniloc. On July 29, 2010, Uniloc USA, Inc. filed a lawsuit against seven software companies including Activision Blizzard, Sony Corporation of America, and McAfee, Inc., alleging infringement of a Uniloc USA patent describing a system for software registration. Uniloc filed a similar suit against Microsoft in 2003.
This report focuses on patents of interest which predate and are concurrent to the Uniloc patent, including public-domain alternatives.
