Well, in my opinion the reason is simple: it's possible to make money,
sometimes insane amounts of money doing it.

There's also the competitive advantage for bigger companies to pound
smaller companies out of business, which again means money.

To me, the most disgusting element are the companies that only seem to
exist on the money made from suing other companies, it hurts all
companies, it hurts consumers.

The system is beyond broken IMHO.
