I don't know the details of the Samsung-Apple dispute, but I think Apple made a billion dollars from ergonomics copies.
In the end, it copied Samsung's core technology. The last word is important.
Samsung can take back the billion dollars it lost from Apple...If I tell you to stop now...
Apple will be an opportunity to learn unique features of smartphones and tablets like Samsung, and it will be cheaper...
Then at the end, it will be a good outcome for consumers.

First, Apple sued Samsung, and Samsung filed a complaint back.

You were holding a card in your other hand. Did you all think Obama would accept the ITC ban?
Of course, that can't be the case. It'll only hurt them. I'm so sick of those devilish empire guys.
We need to break down quickly by the irrationality. Like Apple ruined it after being arrogant.

I think it's quite racist. Samsung should sue the U.S. for billions in compensation for racism.

I'm so sorry to hear that America... ...I thought Obama would always be full of spring days when he was elected.
I thought the United States would finally regain its respect and dignity. When we once envied this country full of freedom and democracy.
America, we gave it a chance, but you guys spit it out. It's a relieve. Knowing that your freedom and democracy are fading.

Apple used to sue other companies.
I'm sure he's sued more than any other company for infringement. And with the help of the United States.
Apple can copy others, but why not other companies like Samsung, Sony, and HTC.
Apple even uses Google. Without any license.

Another thug by the Obama administration. They accept international law or whatever it's convenient for them.

To be honest, patent laws in use these days seem a little funny.
Someone needs to organize it properly. I think it should be renewed every three years. Without extension.
And we need to make sure there are amendments. These days, big companies use patent rights to wield them.

Just wait for the Linux phone to make inroads and put them on the market.

And soon, the Chinese manufacturing company will make another bad composition.
Then there will be another enemy of Apple and Samsung.
