Fosspatents and Florian Mueller.. Where do I remember these? In past he was paid by big corporations for his "Consultancy" services.

I was reading his posts back in the day, did anyone ever perform any analysis if his predictions were right?

I think the general consternation about Mueller started when he predicted that, as a matter of law, Oracle would ultimately be the victor in it's case against Google over Java.

Which did eventually come to pass, in a Federal appeals court ruling in March of this year that overturned the findings of the jury in the previous trial.

He was paid by Oracle when he made that "prediction".

When someone works as a hired gun, all their good works are tainted as well. So who cares.
