"BT is taking legal action in the US against games company Valve for allegedly
infringing on four of the UK telecoms giant's patents."
Yet another reason software patents - and especially Internet patents - are a
disaster. Not only are they a method for the wealthy to attack competitors and
extract money from innovators, but they are now backfiring on the US because
other countries are wanting a slice of that sweet pie (China, too!)
