JPEG patent enforcement controversy
Forgent Networks, through Compression Labs, asserted patent rights related to JPEG image compression and pursued royalties and infringement actions against technology companies. Critics argued that the claims were weakened by prior art and delayed enforcement. The United States Patent and Trademark Office later rejected the broadest claims, and the company settled remaining assertions against numerous companies.
