Umm? How? I mean they are valid in US so there is a problem in US and free 
software users all around the world should be taking notice and considering 
the consequences. Everybody has heard the story of rat, ping and bull right? 
Saying that it is not my problem is worst thing one can do.

I can understand if you don't agree with software patent but that does not 
mean you should ignore them.
