But the Congress is elected by the people. So any lack in legislation should be easily corrected via a vote, right?

This is a new one.

I wonder if Google will issue a takedown notice to http://m.youtube.com ...

Never mind that Windows Phone pretty much doubled its marketshare worldwide. 

I saw what you did there

All patented inventions I made while working at Microsoft (eh, only four of them) are Microsoft's property. The *paid me* to do exactly that and I got a monetary, one-time, patent award, a black cube for the patent submission and - when the patents are registered in a couple of years - a nice plaque to put on the wall.

Same thing occurs in any other company. Except for the cubes, and those are cool.

But that's not what's happening here, right?

Valid patents, that Android manufacturers recognized and licensed. It's a perfectly fine business, especially since it's not like Microsoft is sitting on these patents without producing anything similar... I can't see where the "trolling" is, in this cases.

For an example on how NOT to do licensing, look up Motorola.

Desktop share: in the hundreds of millions.

Web-developer share: in the thousands, maybe.

I don't know, I'm not sure who should they focus on...

I know. The irony - and Mozilla's hypocrisy - is overpowering

@Bass: magic. And infinite pervasive bandwidth, apparently.
