The Patent Troll Tracker is no long anonymous link here. The question now is whether he will continue. "Now that I have been unmasked, I'm not sure where the blog is going from here. I'd like to keep it going." That is good news, because in the past, he suggested he might bow out, once found out.

He also reports a bit about himself, including his career as a lawyer. And he describes his motivation for starting the blog: "When I started the blog, I did so mainly out of frustration. I was shocked to learn that a huge portion of the tech industry's patent disputes were with companies that were shells, with little cash and assets other than patents and a desire to litigate, and did not make and had never made any products. Yet when I would search the Internet for information about these putative licensors, I could find nothing. I was frustrated by the lack of information, and also by the vast array of anti-patent-reform bloggers out there, without a voice supporting what I did believe and still believe is meaningful reform."

May he continue until we get meaningful reform.
