This is very sad news. It cuts down of competition.
Does anyone know exactly WHAT the patent was for? I don't, even after reading lots of news stories. |

What you need to look for is the majority stockholders of Verizon. Gotta be some political sway there somewhere. |

Imagine that I stole your house, and rented it out.
Do you think I should continue to be allowed to do so? |

There are alot of companies that use voip... I dont think thats a verision patent... its been around for years. Most of your instant messaging services use it to a limited extent... the biggest one would be skype. Version just made it available on a massive scale.
