If you are very successful in what you do, that may unfortunately happen to you. Some large, successful companies (like Microsoft) who came up with hardware locking algorithms have been successfully sued. Having worked at a company that does this kind of hardware fingerprinting, I can tell you that the commercial alternatives are generally pretty solid, but they will all fail in some legitimate cases.īe aware that some patents in this space are very actively enforced.
