Patent trolls. Honestly at this rate soon nobody will be able to make anything.

My guess is by the end of this, comment thread you're either going to be undertood to be an uneducated teenager that doesn't understand how, when, or why companies patent technology, or you're going to attempt to act like you know exactly what people who are correcting you are talking about, all the while attempting to back yourself out of this original statement because it was an obvious reach.

If someone doesn't correct you by the time I reach my post, I'll be glad to.  But patenting something doesn't make a company a patent troll.  The process typically goes, idea > prototype > patent > (trade show) > manufacturing > trade show > retail.  Suggesting someone is a patent troll for patenting something is just stupid, if not premature.
