    Well it would be a bit difficult to associate the cost for the maximum joke offer.

    The real offer of spend a day with tech dirt staff offer could be real economic loss.

    As long as they assign one of those 4 people to the task of reversing the bogus take down.

    add the cost of buying the traffic that was lost because the article was not find able during the key period when it was relevant. The long term link juice from all the blogs that would have found it and linked to it.

    And the loss of authority status due to that lost link juice.
    And you could get a "real" value of damages.

    Re: Re:

    mike your focusing on the wrong part of the quote

    Microsoft is focused on infringement of patents that it has not contributed to any industry standard.

    key word is not

    so microsoft "sky high" rates are for technology that is not part of industry standard

    While moto/google disputed patents ARE part of a standard.

    That the huge difference, innovating a solution around microsoft patents is ok

    innovating a solution around google patents get you bitch slapped for not playing nice with the standard (which is the point of FRAND).

    shame on you for ignoring the difference between FRAND and non FRAND patents.

    Microsoft is focused on infringement of patents that it has not contributed to any industry standard. And Microsoft is making its patents?standard essential and otherwise?available to all Android manufacturers on fair and reasonable terms. In fact, more than 70 percent of Android devices are now licensed to use Microsoft?s patent portfolio.


    The point is simple if you use the collective agreement of a standard to push your patent to defacto status then you should not charge the same rate for the patent, that gains defacto status because it is superior to the standard.

    Re: all work and no play makes jack a dull boy.

    so your argument he should not have a right to address the flaws in your facebook post

    because he didn't watch your presentation that fixed the flaws in your facebook post.

    And your not going to show him the presentation so he can comment on that because he addressed the flaws in your facebook post.

    so he objects to a consequence of proposed bill

    If this bill goes forward every isp will have a database of data, that could be hacked and release to the public.

    The embarrassment he is currently objecting to is the same problem millions of Canadians will face from this bill.

    The object should be to make the penalty for abusing fair use as serious as abusing copyright. If a copyright holder were to violate fair use, with a bogus complaint then they should face similar criminal and civil liabilities for that action. By doing this copyright holders would have to think twice asking for a new penalty for infringement, since the same penalty will apply to them.
