Patent troll CEO explains why company demands EFF donor names

“The patent-holding company that wants all podcasters to pay up is just looking for a fair shake.  The CEO and general counsel of Personal Audio LLC got on the phone with Ars Technica to explain why the company is asking for the identities of more than 1,300 donors who have chipped in to help the Electronic Frontier Foundation fight its podcasting patent. The subpoena seeking donor identities and a wide array of other information connected to EFF’s fight against the patent was revealed by EFF.  EFF has moved to quash the subpoena in court, saying that while some donors are very public about their support, they also have a First Amendment right to contribute anonymously.”
