CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA – December 16, 2011 – M·CAM, Inc. released its Patently Obvious® report today on PersonalWeb Technologies

On December 8, 2011, hidden within the buzz surrounding the Great Android War and the upcoming vote on the SOPA bill, PersonalWeb Technologies (run by, among others, Michael Weiss and Kevin Bermeister, the founders of Morpheus and Kazaa, respectively) quietly filed patent infringement suits in the Eastern District of Texas against Google, Youtube, Amazon and others. Are Weiss and Bermeister really the “reformed pirates” everyone’s claiming them to be, or is it all just a ruse to hide a real Nightmare Before Christmas?

M·CAM’s Patently Obvious® is a weekly report providing visibility into potentially unconsidered alternatives, including art in the public domain, to patent holdings across a variety of technology areas.
