In general I think corporations enjoy too much protection from liability. Not just big ones either. Even small local ones. And there's the issue of qualified immunity shielding police and politicians alike from personal liability. Our system needs to change.
I concur. I was completely ignorant of the entire patent troll "business model" until dealing with some corp patent stuff in 2003.
My immediate visceral reaction then is same as it is some 20 years later: "Fuck these assholes, they add zero value to society and shouldn't be allowed to exist."
