SWEEET, VONAGE!!

Quote:
A U.S. district court judge on Friday barred VOIP provider Vonage from signing up new customers after the company lost a patent infringement lawsuit to Verizon Communications.

Judge Claude Hilton of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia denied Vonage’s request to stay an injunction pending its appeal of a patent infringement ruling. On March 8, a federal jury found that Vonage infringed three Verizon patents and must pay $58 million in damages plus royalties.
Quote:
Verizon sued Vonage last June, alleging the VOIP (voice over Internet Protocol) provider had violated seven of its patents involving packet-based calling technology.
One stupid decision among many other stupid decisions. Pwned.
