I don't dispute that. I think it's common knowledge, particularly among techies who are all too familiar with patent trolls.

Lawsuits aren't the only option. He could also go to the press. Unless this guy settled a suit, he's not legally bound to be vague. As it is, it's another unverifiable claim on the internet from an anonymous source. Too many to count.
