It does not do anything other than granting them a time indefinite permission into your gmail that permission allows them to read all of your emails, write and send as many new emails as you as they wish and it allows them the ability to delete/move/copy your emails using the gmail API.

The patent troll buys patents from inventors and then spend money enforcing it. Not much different from Cloudfare paying salaries to the inventors to become the patent holders and then enforcing it against third-parties.

Tech patents exist because companies like Clouldflare want to because they make money with them (suing people). If companies like Cloudfare did want all tech patents to be gone, they would be gone and no patent troll would be able to do anything about.

And they try lure you with $5.000 to do the work to get them off the hook? They are cheap and bunch hypocrites.

Hum... Doesn't clouldfare have patents of their own? Don't they enforce them? Did they turn them to the public domain? You have to love hypocrites.
