Pointwise Ventures LLC has cleared up apparent confusion over who provides the Snapchat mobile app by dismissing the June 2024 case that it filed in Delaware against SnapOne (the provider of “smart-living” products and services recently acquired by Resideo Technologies) and filing a new complaint in the Western District of Texas against Snap (6:24-cv-00396). Amended and corrected complaints have marked other suits in this campaign, the amendments including material apparently intended to fend off an Alice challenge. At least one of the nearly 20 defendants sued to date has indeed filed a motion attacking the claims of the sole asserted patent as patent-ineligibly directed to the abstract idea of “identifying an object in an image”.
