postheadericon Why Did Intellectual Ventures Sue Motorola Mobility... Even As Google Is An IV Investor?

additional notes a quirk in the announcement last week that Intellectual Ventures is continuing Mobility of Motorola for patent infringement is that Google is one of the investors in Intellectual Ventures - which means that it is supposed protected portfolio of applications IV. This leads to a series of open questions. Maybe IV tried to sneak into the application before the closing of the merger - but that does not make much sense either. The merger is likely to be closed long before they demand everywhere. And at that time, do not pretend to be questionable, because Google would should have access to the entire portfolio of IV? Or is it Trouble in Paradise between the IV and one of its own investors?



As you have noticed, Google was much more aggressive recently to talk about the problems of the patent system, particularly in the form of patents are used to hurt innovation . The company says that it is certainly interested in patent reform advanced to solve many of these problems. This is the kind of thing that could harm IV. While this may be an "archery" to Google? An attempt to send a message to one of its own investors not to "rock the boat?" This is the best thing I can think of, because the application does not seem to make much sense otherwise. And, meanwhile, should not this reality

fear
