Google and Amazon Call For Swift Approval Of Innovation Act

Google, Amazon and Adobe are among several companies that have urged US law makers to ensure that a bill aimed at tackling abusive patent litigation filed by non-practising entities is passed swiftly. In a letter sent to members of the US House of Representatives, the group, which also includes technology company Cisco Systems, said it “strongly endorses” the Innovation Act.

The group, known as United for Patent Reform, was formed in January this year with the aim of calling for patent reform in the US.
