Open Invention Network (OIN), bungwe lodzipereka kuteteza chilengedwe cha Linux ku zonena za patent pakupanga, limodzi ndi IBM, Linux Foundation ndi Microsoft, gulu loteteza mapulogalamu otseguka kuti asawukidwe ndi ma patent troll omwe alibe katundu ndipo amangokhalira milandu pogwiritsa ntchito ma patent okayikitsa. Gulu lopangidwa lidzapereka chithandizo ku bungwe m'dera lopeza umboni wogwiritsa ntchito kale kapena kusavomerezeka kwa ma patent omwe akukhudzidwa ndi nkhani zokhudzana ndi Linux ndi pulogalamu yotseguka.
Ndi Mu 2018, bungwe la Unified Patents lidayambitsa milandu 49 ndi ma patent troll, omwe akuimbidwa milandu omwe amakhudzana ndi kupanga mapulogalamu otseguka. Mayesero okwana 2012 otere adalembedwa kuyambira 260. Chitsanzo cha kuukira kwa patent troll pa pulogalamu yotseguka ndi yaposachedwa ndi GNOME Foundation.
Unified Patents ndi gulu la makampani opitilira 200 omwe amagwira ntchito limodzi kuti athane ndi ma patent trolls ndikupangitsa kuti zikhale zovuta kutsutsa ma patent trolls powapangitsa kukhala okwera mtengo kwambiri kuti awononge chifukwa cha zolipira zamalamulo. Ma Patent Ogwirizana sakufuna kupambana mlanduwo, koma amafotokoza momveka bwino kuti adzalimbana ndi kuteteza zofuna za mamembala ake. Zotsatira zake, milandu ndi otenga nawo mbali pa Unified Patents ingakhale yokwera mtengo kwambiri pa troll kuposa ndalama zomwe troll akufuna kulandira (mwachitsanzo, kukangana kopambana kumatha mpaka miyezi 6 ndikuyang'anizana ndi ndalama zamilandu zofikira $ 2 miliyoni). Chitsanzo chimodzi chaposachedwapa ndi mu Okutobala, njira yomwe zonena za Lyft zidakanidwa ndipo troll idawononga ndalama zambiri.
Kulimbana ndi ma troll patent kumakhala kovuta chifukwa chakuti troll ali ndi nzeru zokhazokha, koma samachita ntchito zachitukuko ndi zopanga, kotero ndizosatheka kubweretsa zotsutsana naye zokhudzana ndi kuphwanya malamulo ogwiritsira ntchito ma patent pazinthu zilizonse. , ndipo zonse zomwe zatsala ndikuyesa kutsimikizira kusagwirizana kwa chinthu chomwe chimagwiritsidwa ntchito potengera patent.
Chifukwa cha zomwe OIN, IBM, Linux Foundation ndi Microsoft adachita, Unified Patents tsopano apanga gulu la "Open Source Zone" lomwe lidzaphunzire za ma patent ndikuthana ndi zochitika za patent troll m'malo okhudzana ndi mapulogalamu otseguka. Pofuna kulimbikitsa ntchito yosanthula patent, Unified Patents ali ndi pulogalamu ya mphotho yodziwira kale momwe matekinoloje ovomerezeka amagwiritsidwira ntchito. Mphotho imafika $ 10 (popeza umboni wogwiritsa ntchito patent yomwe idakhudzidwa ndi mlandu wotsutsana ndi GNOME, pa 2500 dollars).
