I thought that Patent Trolls are the ones that just buy up patents and then go hunting to violators while they themselves do not actually make anything that uses the patents. That is shitty to do. I would imagine that Trademark Trolls and IP Trolls would be the same type of thing. This is not that. They have a Trademark on the product they are actively developing/selling/whatever and are trying to defend it. NOW... they are shit bags for thinking the other dude is violating their mark but that is a whole different thing.
