Acacia sent a legal letter to Stanford ... wow

Bizarre. Thats where it all all began before there was an Internet. Its where a huge amount of technology was created that drives the internet such as routers/Cisco and companies like Sun Microsystems and many more.

Its where the first public networks were tested by the governmnet.

I can't imagine Stanfords computer department not hammering Acacia for this. Acacia already has a pretty shaky claim and patent that is just waiting for its day in Court.

If there was any organization on the planet with more access to documents, well documented projects and witnesses to Prior Art (which invalidates the patent) its these people.

"Last month lawyers from more than a dozen institutions set up conference calls to discuss Acacia's notices of infringement and how to respond to them. Calls have included lawyers from Azusa Pacific University, Georgia Institute of Technology, the Johns Hopkins University, the Montana University System, Seton Hall University, Stanford University, University of Maryland University College, the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Virginia, the University of Wyoming, and Valdosta State University."
