waste of time

What a waste of time get a real job.. On the other hand I always find it funny that patent holders always find out about "their" patents being used years later after ti's become mainstream.

What happened to the "if you don't defend your trademark/copyright/patent it becomes 'diluted' and genericized and you loose all rights to it"?

That only applies to a trademark. Not to copyright or patent issues.

I do think, however, that there should be a law that if you sit on your patent without either enforcing it or developing a product based on it for too long, you should lose the right to sue over someone else's use of it.

Very true. We need anti-patent troll laws to prevent this. Use it or lose it.
