The company I used to work for did research on this issue and talked to a
number of IP attorneys regarding this issue. They didn't seem to feel
that it was as cut and dry of an issue. They said that RSA may try to
claim the algorithm is covered by other patents. I personally don't know
one way or the other. That said though, if I had to make a decision one
way or the other regarding this issue, I'd be sure to talk to lawyers
first.
