"Compared to how normal tech company should behave."
Shrug, Apple negotiates above board and pays Amazon tens of millions for one click (possibly bullshit). Apple negotiates above board and pays billions for walking all over Nokia's patents. Samsung walks all over Apple's design (according to Google lawyers) and Apple's (possibly bullshit) patents and Googlerola negotiates for a farcial 5%+ of revenue for one (possibly bullshit) standards patent and yet it's Apple who is the huge villain for going after them. Got it, Apple is supposed to write checks to other companies, never cash any and Google and friends get a lifetime free pass for infringement because they talk about being "open".
"We don't use patents offensively" tends to be propaganda from companies with bad patent portfolios.
- shmerl 13y ago>Apple negotiates above board and pays Amazon tens of millions for one click (possibly bullshit) So? Amazon is also patent sick. As well as Nokia and other patent aggressors. Is that news? It's not an excuse for any of them. "Good portfolio" does not include ridiculously idiotic patents like one click, round corners or anything like that. It doesn't even include any software patents at all.
