Further, if there is a chain of make, sell, use, the assignee may
prosecute an infringement case at any point in the chain.
IOW, if you make an infringing product and sell it to Big Blue, the fact
that you are the original infringer does not absolve IBM from liability.

It depends on how the patent is defined. The patent might explicitly
say used for protecting data on stored media. If you can find a way
to say you're using it in a way not described by the patent then you
have a good chance of getting away with it. Bottom line is you have

I think CAST-256 is the default symmetric encryption used in PGP 5.x,
6.x freeware; the openPGP draft supports a bunch of other algs including
IDEA, which is patented. Could we charge for a product that simply uses
those algorithms to get the secret key from the keyring (we're not

If you read the regs, it makes it legal to put the crypto in orbit. It's
still an offense when it lands abroad. So when the rockets go up, you DO
care where they come
Yes, it's funny, but it's also misleading.

Remember when people were launching rockets with the fins made of win95 CDs?
