Let's say you're a small SaaS startup who's principal place of business is some state other than Texas. A patent troll brings a patent infringement suit against you in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. You already know that the deck is stacked against you because the court sides with plaintiffs 88% of the time[0]. Defending the suit would likely bankrupt the company.
So what should you do? Fight it? Ignore it[1]? Dissolve the company? Sell your soul to PatentShield? What's the least worst option?
