i wouldn't worry about this. First of all, we are all non profit (well, im assuming) and we are not buisnesses. Secondof all, they are going after e-commerce buisnesses. Most teams don't have e-comerce on their sites, and again, they aren't buisnesses. You also said they went after non-e-commerce sites. This is true but when motions were filled on these cases the charges were dropped, so i don't think we need to worry about that. What you need to worry about is your hosting companies and internet suppliers.... but they are catching minows right now, not whales. besides, it'll all prolly get thrown out in court too. The patend says they copyrighted being able to show products, order them and ship them electronically including billing. This is like saying, "i copyrighted a motor vehicle with 4 weels". Its so increadibly broad that it can't hold up.
