Congress: Stop Trying to Limit EFF’s Ability to Challenge Patents | Electronic Frontier Foundation EFF recently won our challenge to invalidate claims of the “podcasting patent” using a procedure at the Patent Office called inter partes review. This procedure allowed us to challenge a patent that was being used to demand licenses from individual podcasters, even though EFF itself had never been threatened by the patent owner.
