Sprint Loses $30m Patent Battle

Sprint Loses $30m Patent Battle

Smartphones Jun 26,2015 0

A U.S court has ruled that Sprint violated patents covering secure access to data owned by Prism Technologies, and the mobile operator is facing a $30m fine. A jury in Nebraska found in favour of Prism after it sued Sprint for violating patents covering ways to "manage access to protected computer resources".

Prism Technologies makes money licensing its patents, and has taken many companies that use them to court. The company has also accused T-Mobile, Verizon and US Cellular of violating the same patents.

Sprint said it planned to pursue "post-trial motions" to contest the judgement.

Critics claim that the US patent system allows companies or "patent trolls" to acquire the rights to inventions and demand money to use them, without making products of their own. The US is currently debating ways to reform how it hands out patents for technology.
