Porn Pushing Patented

I love this quote from the article:

"I feel like somebody went out and patented air, and is now going after everyone for breathing," said Spike Goldberg, CEO of an amateur porn site called HomeGrown Video, which is leading the adult community's legal fight against Acacia.

Web Porn Pushers in Patent Fight.

Several sites have already settled out of court rather than risk legal action. By Noah Shachtman. [Wired News]
