I wish I had a link handy, but the massive lawsuits firing back and forth between phone tech companies (apple, google, samsung, etc.) would argue against the Mutually Assured Destruction cold war theory for patents.
- jivatmanx 14y agoI think that Apple/Google/Samsung each still think that they can somehow "Win" the patent war. It should eventually become blindingly obvious to all of them that they can't.
- belorn 14y agoOnce rolling, there is no stop to the war until there is a winner declared by media.
- ihsw 14y agoThe article states that Samsung lost a lawsuit in the US against Apple, however it fails to mention other high-profile results of Apple v. Samsung legal rulings -- namely where Apple had to publicly apologize in the UK and issue a prominently-featured statement as such on their UK website. Other nations have ruled in favor of Apple, and vice versa, which further adds to the confusion of who is a victor.
