Thay doesnt work on patent trolls becausr all they do is sue people. They have no products of their own to build their own patent liability risk so they arent kept in line. The solution to patent trolls is pretty simple yet impossible. Make having a patent contingent on having a product in the market that uses the patent with a short grace period of a few years. If you have no product for sale you can point to after the grace period you lose the patent. Also make patent holder at least 50% liable for any licensor product abuse. Then they will be stopped from patent trolling by their own exposure, as it should be if you are giing to have a patent system like this.
Trolls don't like fighting in courts, because most of their patents are utter junk. They rely on protection racket intimidation when courts are avoided and they are paid for that.
So while fighting them in court is costly since it requires research of prior art and doing all the necessary work to invalidate those junk patents, it's still often a proper tactic to destroy them.
And AOM has deep pockets to bust them or show how it doesn't apply. It's an alliance for a reason - let them work together then. More than a thousand sounds like complete bs already.
Also, can't whole AOM pool resources to annihilate those trolls? They'll all benefit from it. So this doesn't make sense.
