Net2phone alleges that skype has infringed on their patent for sending telephone calls over the internet.

Net2phone needs to prove that no improvement was made over their own technology.

The good thing about this case in my view is that it will get large corporations to start questioning the current software patent laws.

"The Pirate Bay (TPB) meddelade i Köpenhamn att sajten (...) kommer att finnas i fyra kopior: Holland, Ryssland, Ukraina plus ett land till inom EU. De insisterade på att det händer och arbetas just nu. De lade då till två ytterligare länder, ett inom och ett utanför EU, där announce-servrar skulle stå, dvs servrar som lagrar själva trackerfilerna men inte hela webbsajten: "När vi säger på nätet att vi är från Pirate Bay i Sverige och att vi behöver hjälp med hårdvara och hosting får vi nu omedelbart erbjudande om hjälp i solidarisk anda. Pirate Bay blir starkare än någonsin!"."
