Why isn't this guy in jail yet?

As you say, the current environment warrants it. It really doesn't matter what the law is. They can afford to take a case to court and then prolong it until the defendant can no longer finance their defense, or they settle of court.

Sorry, I should have used "patent lawsuits" instead of "patent trolls". Didn't think I have to draw intestines on stick figures, but there you go. Some people need hand holding to generalize upon an idea, and I guess you're one of these people.

It's as if you didn't even read the summary. The patents are filed with help from pro-bono lawyers working on behalf of Khan Academy. It costs them NOTHING to file patents.

Doesn't matter if the suing party is a bona fide patent troll or a frivolous suit from a "legitimate" company. You nitpick on the "patent troll" part. The issue is simple: Khan Academy doesn't have that much money to defend itself against patent lawsuits, no matter who they come from.

How would you propose they protect themselves from threats of infringement lawsuits from patent trolls?

You seem optimistic about the war ending. As long as patent trolling is condoned by the legal system, a small operation like Khan Academy would never be out of the clear. They can be sunk by just one lawsuit.

I would encourage you to look at what the Khan Academy is. Maybe they're new to you, but from the years I've heard about their existence, they have been nothing but benign. Salman Khan still makes the bulk of those 10 minute videos himself using nothing but a paint program.

Khan Academy started with 0 market share. Khan Academy was hardly the first attempt at building online teaching tools.

They pay the bills using money that is donated to them. None of that is affected by market share or grant money that mysidia mentioned.

Do you even know what the Khan Academy is, you retarded cunt?

To be honest, I don't see any difference between the description and the various different online compilers out there.

But even without prior art, I'd say the patent is not non-obvious enough.

Khan Academy is a non-profit.

The defensive purpose is against patent trolls who may try to sue the Khan Academy.

It's most likely for a defensive purpose and something that the legal firm advised doing.

He's the PM who wanted to scrap the National Broadband Network and thought more roads was what Australia needed. He obviously doesn't get information technology at all.

The whole point of exceptions is that some control flows are exceptional.
