What seems fishy is:
1. The author says you lose your patents if you go bankrupt. Individuals can keep patents. If the corporation was in danger of going bankrupt, why couldn't they sell the patents or assign them to officers of the corporation as compensation, etc. Losing patents on technology you have spent $$ on just because the company goes bankrupt doesn't seem right.
2. If this is cross platform technology and is good stuff, why didn't other companies buy their technology?
3. Damages of hundreds of millions of dollars are being bandied about in this article. If this technology is worth that much, how did the company get reduced to 2 people. Why can't they just sell this technology and be multimillionaires.
3. These are lawyers talking.
