Actually, in this case, "loose" may well be correct, though I'm sure the original poster didn't mean it that way. "Loose" can also mean, "to free," in which case "loosing patents," can mean "to free the IP." I agree with you, that the original poster probably meant "lose patents," as in "lose control of the IP." This may be one of the few instances where "lose" and "loose" come out with similar meaning.
