"Microsoft is protecting itself against patent trolls,"
That's great, but as we have seen the Blackberry case, once a patent is granted a great deal of harm can be caused to others, even if the patent should have been invalid. I also feel that patenting something you didn't create is morally wrong.
I understand that you are supposed to cite possible prior art in a patent application. I wonder if MS did that.
