  "Laws are for poor people." Apple will outlast any legal challenges, and any successful will be immaterial to their financials. I have no dog in this fight (no exposure to AAPL besides whatever is in index funds, no standing in claims), just calling it how it is. Any class action is going to be cost of business. At a certain market cap and revenue run rate, it doesn't matter. Some damages will get paid, class action counsel will get paid, consumers will get a few bucks, and everyone will move on until the patent expires. Might have a securities fraud lawsuit to contend with too, everything is securities fraud as Matt Levine @ Bloomberg says. Very similar to Tesla's FSD story. You can outrun the financial liability if your sales and brand are strong enough. Was it wrong what Apple did? The moral position is irrelevant. We might as well argue over the color of the bikeshed.
