Berating people for filing patents in self defense is not how we fix this problem. The government put these rules in place. Businesses have to at least accumulate patents to use defensively (you found a patent of yours that you think I'm violating? Well let me do a quick search through the patents I have...what's that? Nevermind, I'm not actually infringing your patent? Good, that's what I thought.)
I think so , yes , it made me be re aware of the patent troll scam in the USA.

Hate doesn't counter Hate , I guess.
Yes, calling out unethical practices makes the world a better place by discouraging unethical practices.
