Am I reading this right?

http://news.com.com/2100-1032_3-5074799.html

A java applet linked from a web page infringes a patent and all such 
applets and plug-ins will need new delivery mechanisms as yet unthought of?

How do I complain?

next thing we know it'll be animated gifs and banner ads served from a 
different server.

World's gone mad I say!
