Yeah, I corrected the comment.
I also find it weird that "conservative" judges are expected to support APIs copyrightability. Is it because conservative is supposed to mean opposed to progress? Declaring APIs copyrightable is going to hurt the progress and technology.

The judges that acted in a way which (the writer believes) suggests they support Oracle's position happen to also be the conservative justices.
- shmerl 6y agoHow much of this happen to be is accidental? For me it looks like a pattern. Especially if they are divided by the same lines. Let's wait and see until the final decision though.
- dragonwriter 6y ago> How much of this happen to be is accidental? A lot. It's not like anyone is appointing judges with an API-copyrightability litmus test.
- shmerl 6y agoLet's wait until the final result, but if the division will be by the same lines as conservative or not, I'd strongly question the randomness of it.
