A corrupção é mais profunda do que você jamais imaginou. Uma indústria multibilionária da qual você nunca ouviu falar. Este é o mundo em que os Trolls de Patentes prosperam: um mundo criado para eles por nosso próprio sistema de Patentes nos Estados Unidos. Você pode ser processado por clicar em um hiperlink, usar seu próprio scanner ou compartilhar seu Wi-Fi! Parece loucura, mas a realidade é ainda mais louca. Os trolls de patentes procuram por ideias óbvias, patentea-as e, em seguida, processam qualquer pessoa que alegarem estar infringindo sua ideia. As vidas das pessoas e os negócios estão sendo destruídos… e eles não têm saída. “The Patent Scam” expõe o ponto fraco deste sistema e as pessoas que cometem essa prática.
