I would wholly expect Amazon to sue over S3 implementations by Oracle, IBM for SQL, etc.
I would want the whole industry to target Oracle. Get their pound of flesh.
- coldpie 6y agoAnd then Oracle sues Amazon and IBM back for implementing some API or other that they own through one of their billion acquisitions...
- buttersbrian 6y agoMutually Assured Destruction from the fallout of a terrible decision that forces the SC to re-evaluate (through another case etc) is better than letting something like this settle.
- tmccrary55 6y agoSame but I think the problem is tech people don't buy Oracle products on purpose, suits do that.
- buttersbrian 6y agoThat's probably true. Honestly, companies shouldn't be worried about the FANG's, because they will create alliances and largely refrain from suing one another. It's the never-ending, death-by-a-thousand-cuts onslaught from trolls that will murder small/medium outfits. The east texas troll court is going to have a boom like it was 1840s California just to support all the litigation in our near future -- if this passes.
- dodobirdlord 6y agoThe East Texas troll court is focused on patent cases, and presumably won’t be the venue of choice for copyright law trolling. I’m sure that venue already exists.
