Another article on Alice 101 in relation to software patents.

Not an issue for us (as case is in Canada), and I am still not convinced the reason we went for the Canada courts was because of Alice 101, but its all good info.

My personal take for setting the FB / Instagram infringement in Canada is that we are already well into the process against SNAP, using the same legal team / papers / forms / arguments etc, all based on the Canadian system will save a lot of time and money. Winning in Canada and with the US patent also granted, SNAP / FB would not want a repeat of the process in the US.

I have also read the Canadian system is easier than the US. (Biail disagrees),

One article that explains the huge differences in costs between US / Canada
