ya i know i just thought about something

if I wanted to make a video or a audio file saying that I am in favor of some dumb law or some canidate or say anything at all
and run that video off my website



acacia would claim that violates their patent
and would ask for royalty fees

that violates my civil rights right to free speech

also we could go a step further
acacia could grant licences to people and company that had the same political views that they do

since people that opposed their views couldnt broadcast on the internet

that makes acacia patent a threat to free speach
