description	In 2008, one of authors -- George Cary -- co-authored an article on the role of antitrust law when patent holders abuse a standard-setting process in order to secure inclusion of their technology in industry standards. Since then much has been written on the proper role (if any) for antitrust in policing such conduct; two then-recent courts of appeal decisions that addressed the issue have been analyzed in depth; the EU has stated its views; and numerous scholars and commentators have staked out positions. Here, they again consider the question of the proper role of antitrust in light of these opinions and recent commentary. They conclude that those arguments are unpersuasive as a matter of law and unsound as a matter of policy.
