Voip Pal Com Inc (VPLM)

[nyt]

As I have explained in detail so many times, the outcomes of the IPRs were not in any way nor ever will be, wins in the usual sense of the word. Calling them wins is nothing more than misdirection or misunderstanding of the events true meaning.

The IPR challenges were defeated which left vplm exactly no more and no less than what they had before they went to court of, for that matter, what they had the moment the patent applications were approved which isn't that hard to do, as history has shown. Many ppl since, have expressed the idea that they think vplm not only won something, which they did not, but that those successful defenses of the challenges somehow show that the patents are "all that" and have need, have efficacy and value. Not so on all counts. Again, the only thing won, if it must be referred to as a win, is that they were successful at defending against the many challenge put to it. I can understand how some think that constitutes a win, but when you win something, generally you have something to show for that win that you didn't have going in. As I said, nothing, absolutely nothing was gained. Had it gone the other way, for sure the challengers wouldn't then be true winners because they would have something to show for it, ie, they would've invalidated the patent or some part. So in that case, there is a definite winner and a definite loser. But a successful beat of a challenge leaves you with the same as you had from minute one.

Same goes for.all the rest of it. There have been challenges and trials and hearings and threats and letters and all sorts and sundry sabre rattling and super lawyer maneuverings, for years and years but nary a plugged nickel has ever been produced for the retail shareholder by any of that and likely never will because it's all a front and talk talk talk delay delay delay all designed to generate and keep the shares and bucks flowing to their intended targets. And that has always worked well ever since the not so smart shareholders allowed vplm to get away with their blatant lies. They did so out of vreed because they were convinced, ironically, by vplm again, that the money would be coming their way in short order and in big amounts via a sale. They weren't even interested in the plan B which made so much more sense. But that's because the whole deal was just a ploy, a front, real good story. A play Madoff would've been proud to have created.
