During recent decades, patent holders and implementers working within Standard Developing Organizations have successfully cooperated to develop new wireless standards that have benefited consumers all around the world. The standardization process has been successful because it has made all participants better off. The increased strategic use of jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction challenges by certain implementers to delay or avoid payment is threatening this successful process. In response, courts in various jurisdictions are moving to set global license terms. However, because some local courts are, or at least are perceived as, biased, licensors and licensees are maneuvering to influence which court ends up setting global FRAND terms (for example, by seeking anti-suit and anti-anti-suit injunctions). In this chapter, we explore the implications for the future of the standardization process of these developments. Specifically, we consider the implications of extraterritoriality when licensors and licensees belong to different jurisdictions and local courts may be biased in favor of local litigants. Our main concern is that current developments may lead to the fragmentation of global standards along geopolitical lines.
