Standing Up to a Dangerous New Breed of Patent Troll

Re: Standing Up to a Dangerous New Breed of Patent Troll
#62Just want to provide a contrarian view here: patent assertion and 'trolling' is not necessarily a bad thing in theory. It can create a secondary monetization route for inventors, instead of asserting it themselves. Now, that's all predicated on the validity of the patent and the degree of infringement, but it's not always a bad thing.
Can you cite an example of a firm operating along Blackbird's structural business model -- except adhering to a policy of asserting only patents that carry a plausible claim to validity?
