Sure, but it appears that there was no intent and that the actual damages from the infringement are roughly $0. It may result in a small penalty, but it's in no way a threat to Android's future.
- yuhong 16y ago> It may result in a small penalty Especially considering they did register their copyright on Java 5. I know because I have read the court exhibits.
- kingkilr 16y agoYup, statutory damages for copyright infringement suck for individuals, but for someone like Google they're not awful (AFAIR it's something like $7,500 or $150,000 depending on something per count).
- nohat 16y agoTrue, but if they did ship something tainted, then that could be a very large count.
