Targeted Radio patent challenged as likely unpatentable

On March 17, 2020, Unified filed a petition for inter partes review (IPR) against U.S. Patent 8,948,684, owned and asserted by Targeted Radio LLC, an Acacia Research Corporation affiliate and well-known NPE.  The ’684 patent, generally directed to the insertion of advertising or other content into an Internet radio stream based on the user's location, has been asserted in a district court case against Pandora.
