Federal Circuit Affirms Victory for LinkedIn

The district court had held that claims of the asserted patent are ineligible under 35 U.S.C. §101, because the claims are directed to the abstract idea of facilitating a cross-marketing relationship and the claims are performed using only generic, conventional technology.
