Doesn’t it seem kind of crooked/retarded that Google’s trying to screw people over trying to implement H.264, developed as an open standard, with patents they have FRAND obligations on, and at the same time they’re trying to promote the technically inferior VP8 essentially for no reason, since it turns out it has the same patent problems as H.264, and they’re upset that Nokia doesn’t want to go along with this?
Google can’t solve the problem of H.264 being patent-encumbered by claiming they have the only sandwich made of piss-proof bread when really it’s a shit sandwich made with bread at least a few companies are able to piss on, and Google is actively starting a pissing war and provoking companies to try to piss on it.
