Google as cheerleader for patent reform?

From the Washington Times in March 2015:

--


The No. 1 corporate cheerleader for patent reform has been Google. Let’s not forget how close the Obama administration is to Google. There has been practically a revolving door between the company and the White House. If you hate crony capitalism, then you should be worried about the administration and Congress acting so aggressively to overhaul the patent system to advance the financial interests of Google and others.

Lest one forget, from a letter by Ken Blackwell in January 2015:

--
“[T]he number one corporate cheerleader for patent reform has been Google,” [Blackwell] wrote in the letter provided to Secrets. “Let’s not forget how close the Obama administration is to Google. There has practically been a revolving door between the company and the White House. If you hate crony capitalism, then you should be worried about the administration and Congress acting so aggressively to overhaul the patent system to advance the financial interests of Google and others.”
