Patent Litigation Weekly: Shutter Closing on Massive Photo-Sharing Patent Suit
20 01 2010FotoMedia is a patent-holding company that claims just about every photo-sharing website you can imagine
infringes its three patents. Its lawsuits, covered by TPA last May and June, are notable not just for the audacity of the claims they make, but also because they target dozens of small- and medium-sized software companies that provide various types of photo-sharing services over the internet.
