A. US6704870, granted on March 9, 2004 (Yes, published)


Sony asserted prior art against this patent in the 2007 case before

What does that mean?

It means that Sony pointed out that Certicom's claim is as full of shit as we all know it to be, and that the court case ended without the court, which found Certicom's claim and Sony's defense equally incomprehensible, finding for or against anyone.

Which is pretty much the standard outcome of these cases, since neither the courts, the lawyers, not the patent office, have the necessary skills to comprehend these patents.
