Google Countersues UK Telco BT Over Patent Infringement In Its Conferencing and IP Quality Of Service Products

Google today stepped up its battle to protect its patents, with the latest target a countersuit against BT, the UK incumbent telecoms carrier, along with Ipanema Technologies, which resells some of BT's services. The suit relates to four patents that Google says are being infringed by services that BT runs over its IP network, specifically relating to its conferencing services and quality of service assurance products. Google today filed a suit in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, which we have embedded below. TechCrunch understands that BT will be served with papers tomorrow (Thursday) in the UK, at which point that suit will become available as well.
