It's classic ankle nipping. They start the paper work on giant companies only and sue for billions or millions and hope the biggie even bothers to send them away with about a 3% payoff. The here, take this 2 dollars and leave us alone you homeless bum payoff.
Lawyers do that a lot. Ask for crazy amounts, knowing that they'll still get a good chunk just to go away.

(“NHPI”), Voip-Pal.com (“VPLM”), and Orofino Gold Corporation (“ORFG”), without an available exemption.3 Hurry’s indirectly-owned broker-dealer, Scottsdale Capital Advisors Corporation (“SCA”), was alleged to have executed those sales on behalf of foreign financial institutions
—— I also had a few notes dating back to 2014 involving some strange press release Not sure what happened since then. Not interested in looking at this point. Especially if it deals with another PATENT scheme. (Like MILV)

And, where is that a requirement? VPLM and Virnetx(VHC) are very similar, with VHC just further along in pursuing their lawsuits against aapl. Virnetx has no real business, yet they have nearly $1Billion in patent infringement judgements against aapl!
Kinda throws that patent troll business out the window! Oh, and VPLM was granted and issued all patents they hold! VPLM did not buy the patents!
