Elevate is just software. Ubiquiti already sold the hardware and never asked any money for software.  So how is Ubiquiti damaged? They're not damaged any more than Dell is damaged if you delete Windows to install Ubuntu.

I'm also sure Cambium wouldn't have proceeded with Elevate if they weren't pretty sure they could defend it legally.

I think there's also a principle that your IP isn't really yours unless you are making an effort to protect it.  So Ubiquiti might feel that they have no choice but to try.

I'm just sitting safely in my armchair and hypothesizing, and I have no horse in that race.

    I'd like to see more of the claims.

    They've also sued Sakid Ahmed and Dmitry Moiseev of Cambium.
    They've sued WINNCOM TECHNOLOGIES, CORP.​.

    They've sued BLIP Networks​, a WISP in southern Illinois.
