This is the side of lawsuits that you don’t see every time someone on Reddit or Hacker News confidently tells you to lawyer up and go to court.
Even seemingly simple issues can turn into never ending money pits that consume thousands of hours of your life spread over months or years.
If you’re really committed to something then you should evaluate how much time and money you’re willing to put into pursuing it. Unless both of those values are uncomfortably high numbers, just move on.
Which is exactly what those individuals and companies who act in bad faith but have deep pockets rely on. You’re right, but it’s still unfortunate.
Reading this,Patent trolls comes to my mind.
I think I have uploaded a hackernews post about the documentary about patent trolls but it of course didn't get any traction but its still worth a watch.
