Back to Acacia

, from reading the thread on GFY, it seems to me that TB did this NOT under the direction of their legal counsel, but as strictly a business decision.

Granted, I'm not a big player, I don't have a huge amount of $$$ that could be lost and in fact, I didn't even get an Acacia letter, but IMHO, if you're going to be paying $$$$$$ to attorneys - including patent attorneys from what I understand - it seems you'd do what THEY suggest you do.

I can see it as an "insurance policy" - I said that when CE signed up, but I have to wonder if there's business lost when making the decision.....
