IPO News Today Offers In-Depth News Coverage of Facebook IPO

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Busy with preparations for one of the biggest IPOs ever, Facebook has to deal with several lawsuits accusing it of patent infringement.

In the same way that Apple has sued Samsung and Microsoft has forced several companies to pay it fees for the use of the Android operating system, dozens of companies seek part of the estimated $10 billion that the Facebook IPO will raise.

The fact that Facebook was named as a defendant in twice as many patent infringement lawsuits in 2011 as the year before shows that it is not immune from the wave of patent litigation that tech companies have experienced in the past two years.
