I suppose you could implement price-capping on sales of domain names, but I find that even less palatable. I like your ideas although for businesses a cap on number of domains is tough to swallow. Thanks for the comment Tom. Yeah that is probably not implementable. I suppose you could implement price-capping on sales of domain names, but I find that even less palatable.

I wonder if an approach like the FCC uses with radio stations might work -- limit the number of domains any single person can own. And really crack down on fake registrations, with verification emails and such.

Infringement lawsuits are bound to happen, whether IV seeks them out our not. Are we to believe Intellectual Ventures is benevolent, a “patent angel” even, provided they don’t proactively seek to lodge lawsuits? The proactive element seems to be a key defining characteristic of trolls. Or is squatting on IP just inherently bad, and something we should dissuade in all cases?
