No one said that is what happened. The patent creator likely sold the patents, look who is filing them now since 2017 and 2018 it has been RJR / RAI. Looks like he sold them to R J Reynolds not RAI. Do you blame him? Back in the days SFIO was trading there were not e cigs or vapes everywhere. Now everyone has them.
Am i thinking they can't just take the patent, Because we are the shareholders and must be compensated for the patent...... Or am i wrong for thinking that way.......?
