I feel that the phrase "burdened with patents that aim to restrict the freedoms of grid computing service providers" is not NPOV. Yes, CPUshare has patents, but Andrea says that "the CPUShare project has simply no choice but to try to play best by the current rules of the economy in the hope to succeed." This suggests to me that it is an issue of preventing larger companies from squashing CPUshare by simply creating a much larger service that can easily beat it.

While the ethics of patenting this may be dubious, we should present both sides of the issue, and not put words in Andrea's mouth about the reason for the patents.
