House Energy and Commerce Committee Takes on Patent Trolls


Yesterday, Danny Seigle, director of business operations at FindTheBest, was on Capitol Hill to testify about the startup’s battle with a patent troll. FindTheBest just received its second demand letter from a patent troll – only four sentences long. Seigle testified before the House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations to make the case for patent reform.

“The right business decision was to pay the troll’s demands,” said Seigle. “But our CEO chose to fight.”

Seigle spoke on behalf of thousands of companies silenced by patent trolls.
