    I’m confused… What does this Trib article have to do with patent laws? This is a separate issue afaict to do with animal rights, has nothing to do with patent laws. Or are you pointing out that non-enforcment may be the future of these laws?

    I personally don’t feel that non-enforcement is a very probable future for these types of patent laws. A company the size of Microsoft has the resources to wield a heck of alot more political clout than an animal rights group in Chicago.
