I'm well aware what a patent is. What needs to happen is they need to start selling things, yesterday. I don't care what else you've got to say about it. That's the beginning and end of things. They need to be generating revenue.
Most of our patents are in countries outside the US Patent system.
So I don't see how they could be stolen or otherwise appropriated illegally, as a group.
The patents could be superseded or declared invalid but that would be very difficult. No sign of that happening short-term.
It seems to me that the company shares are selling for less than the company's asset value. So that's how you can acquire the patents - buy the company by buying all of the shares.
As you say: "...there is kind of like nothing we can do about it..."
And why would we shareholders want to do anything? Buying a penny stock is more like buying a lotto ticket than anything real and tangible. WallStreet considers anything selling below $10 to be a "penny stock".
