What it does is make it harder for the real inventor to revoke a patent once it has been awarded.
Now I think you're just trolling. Section 6 of the AIA actually establishes a process for ANYone to challenge the validity of the patent right immediately after it is awarded and for MORE reasons than currently exist for filing a reexamination.
The purpose of AIA was to lower the amount of court cases contesting patents and free up the USPTO from having to handle "prior art" claims
That was just two sections of the 30+ sections in the bill, many of which have nothing to do with either of these. Please don't pretend like you know what the purpose of the bill is when you don't even know what it contains.
