Patents take a while to get approved so a 2014 patent isn't too big of an issue...I believe the patent is mainly in networking which does tend to hold its standards longer than the rest of the industry. From skimming over info on it, it very well could be a long lasting patent as I think it was more methods being patented and not specific technology/standards, but I could be mistaken.
I read an article recently that said Twitter's new Periscope app (I've never used it so can't tell you how it works) could be violating that patent so if that's the case, then I think their technology is still fresh but you're also correct. With as fast as technology is changing, a timely product rollout is absolutely crucial for EVTI's success. If there are any major delays or setbacks, someone else could beat them to it. To the best of my knowledge, there is no one else out there offering the solution that EVTI is offering. The reason I bought in some (nowhere near going "all-in" with my money) and am staying EVTI long is unless they get beat out in the release of their products, Facebook and Google both would likely have a strong desire to own the products and/or technology that EVTI is relying on for their success. I am in because I see very good buyout potential.
