Is the Open Invention Network still a thing? MS still hasn't joined, and is still using patents as a weapon, apparently.

Doesn't the OIN secretly sell some of its patents to non-members and non-licensees? Sounds very strategic for the companies involved and this can lead to some serious consequences for any company who is targeted by an OIN patent.


any sources for this?
