Yahoo has filed suit against Facebook in federal court in San Jose, California, alleging infringement of 10 of the company’s patents, including methods and systems for advertising on the Web, Reuters reports, citing a copy of the lawsuit.
Yahoo‘s suit
comes with Facebook in registration for an initial public offering that
reportedly could value the company at as much as $100 billion.
Yahoo said in a statement that it is confident it will prevail in the
suit. ”Unfortunately, the matter with Facebook remains unresolved and
we are compelled to seek redress in federal court,” Yahoo said in a
statement.
Facebook, according to CNBC,
responded with disappointment that Yahoo decided to sue. “We’re
disappointed that Yahoo’s effort to engage with us was limited to a few
short phone calls,” they said in a statement.
