Are so-called "patent trolls" a US-only problem?

質問

Hello everyone!

Thank you for your previous help! Just because it has been asked, let me start with it: we are operating out of Germany, but we are not limited in our business to the German market.

I have been reading a lot about so-called "patent trolls", also in a previous question by someone on this website. Is this really only an American issue? I do not think such entities have made the European news yet as much, but I am wondering what kind of legal and financial risk we are facing and how do we protect us against it? Maybe someone has experience with "patent trolls" in Europe? Thank you very much!

Sadly, Non-Practising Entities are abundant in today's economy and you will most likely not run into one unless you've really invaded their territory.

As with all IP, it's easier to be reactive that proactive, but you could still keep one eye open for what's around the corner... :)
