Yahoo Implies It Can Still Shake Down Facebook For Patent Money. Bloody Unlikely

FishyYahoo and Facebook signed a contract today that says they cannot sue each other over patents. Yet Yahoo may be trying to convince investors that�Facebook would still pay to buy or license some Yahoo intellectual property. But according to a source familiar with the exact wording of the Yahoo-Facebook contract, the two companies have rights to each other's entire patent portfolios, so�Yahoo would have no leverage to extort money or value from Facebook. I smell something fishy. Let's investigate.
