Yes some civil claims about IP theft are definitely comparable to murder.
The reason that this gets covered before is that it sounds like juicy gossip. Turns out the gossip isn't "true" enough to get an interesting court result. So it's not really news. Those articles are just gossip.n the words of Dennis Nedry, nobody cares.
The intersection of people who think that FB is evil because of IP theft in the occulus thing but who don't also just come to this conclusion from all the other FB coverage of their non-action to stop genocides (random example), is the empty set.
- tehlike 5y agoBy your logic companies go into ip trials all the time so trial itself is boring. Ridiculous.
- rtpg 5y agoNah, that's not what I'm saying. "Someone makes intense claim regarding IP law theft": interesting! Maybe it's true? If it's true, that is interesting in itself! It's pure palace intrigue with basically no important consequences (even if Palmer Lucky were to lose all his money he would end up being fine in the way that everyone above a certain strata ends up only falling up). "Turns out the claim is not accepted by the courts": given that this didn't really matter for anyone beyond the two people, not interesting! The important aspect here being this is like a dispute around money with really no consequences. Of course doesn't help that the people involved are not exactly super friendly. Palace intrigue. Fun to read about and talk about! Not important
