🚨🚨🚨Today, DEF is excited to share that we have resolved all disputes related to the patent claiming invention of oracle-like technology owned by True Return Systems (TRS).
DEF purchased the TRS patent, which is being used to sue MakerDAO and Compound, and dedicated it to the public.
This means an end to the lawsuits against MakerDAO and Compound and insurance that similar lawsuits will never be filed. 🧵

We build AI to empower people, including journalists.
Our position on the @nytimes lawsuit:
• Training is fair use, but we provide an opt-out
• "Regurgitation" is a rare bug we're driving to zero
• The New York Times is not telling the full story

Today the Ninth Circuit heard ~35 min of oral argument on the Anti-SLAPP appeal in Yuga Labs v. Ripps et al
Some notes on discussion:
- where is the limiting principle in connecting the conduct in furtherance of speech? Would the reasonable observer know just by Ds' conduct it is criticizing BAYC?
- Judge asked if there were other ways Ds could have commented on Yuga Labs through the use of NFTs (e.g., NFTs with expressed criticism on the image associated)
- interesting analogy of NFT: name a star program, get a ownership certificate that points to something else;
- D counsel describes two expressive purposes: (1) what NFTs provide (certificate, not image); (2) critiquing BAYC
- D counsel points to allegations of the complaint mentioned the NFTs were part of a harassment campaign, which is sufficient conduct in furtherance
