Jason Schultz Quotations

Let's say you get a patent on something like a pop-up window. Of course, you could, in theory, go after everyone on the Internet, but you don't. What you end up doing is picking off the weak members of the herd, companies that don't have the money to defend themselves or independent Web sites, or occasionally big companies that you think will not have very much backbone and will quickly settle.

Really, ... what we're talking about here is the U.S. struggling to find its place in an economy where the labor markets are just so vastly different.

Our nation's education system already faces severe budget constraints and a shortage of resources. We shouldn't be diverting resources away from teaching to pay off bogus patent threats.

It feels like the ground's rolling, ... The longest one we had last night lasted about 30 or 40 seconds.

Those who have been claiming that the DMCA does not threaten reverse engineering are plainly wrong, ... The DMCA has become a powerful anticompetitive tool, and that means consumers will see fewer innovative products in the marketplace.

The reality is that this isn't going to stop any kind of so-called piracy, ... All this technology does is inhibit you from making the same kind of personal, fair-use music you've always made. The real pirates are going to easily circumvent this technology. The bootleggers won't even blink.

The patent system serves an important public purpose in our economy. Keeping illegitimate patents out of that system helps up-and-coming artists and entrepreneurs succeed for all of us.

This ruling is bad for gamers, but it could also be terrible for the software industry, ... It essentially shuts down any competitor's add-on innovation that customers could enjoy with their legitimately purchased products. Add-on innovation is one of the hottest areas of creativity and economic growth right now in software, and this decision will slow investment and development in that field.

This ruling threatens competition to offer new services, new features,

The point of copyright law is not to give people absolute control over everything they write. It's to compensate artists and authors for the works that they create.

The simplest thing to say is that this person is not a lawyer and appears to have no legal training,

These companies don't know what's going to be valuable, what will be the next big thing, so they try to patent absolutely everything.

To some extent, it also 'phones home' to Sony over the Internet and uploads some of this information about your activity to them, ... potentially even identifying information such as your name, e-mail address and location on the Internet.

A lot of patents back in the late 1990s and early 2000s were made when the patent office was still trying to figure out what to do.

People paid Sony for music, not an invasion of their computers. Sony must right the wrong it has committed. Recalling the CD's is a beginning step in the process, but there is a whole lot more mess to clean up.

Entertainment companies often complain that fans refuse to respect their intellectual property rights. Yet tools like this refuse to respect our own personal property rights, ... Sony's tactics here are hypocritical, in addition to being a security threat.

You need incentives for people to innovate in technology. You've never needed that in businesses because if a business is successful you make money. It's its own incentive.

I have no first hand experience with these lawyers, but according to Ray's papers, the RIAA has hired two sets of lawyers, one to be good cop and one to be bad,

This is only one of the many things Sony must do to be accountable for the damage it's inflicted on its customers.

I figured I had to make mine. I hit some good putts on the previous three or four holes and he got a good look at the line. My caddie made a great read on it and I just tried to hit it down the line. I think Daley would have made his if I missed mine.
