> but you can refuse to license them for their next product That might not be legally possible - or deemed to be anticompetitive. Cancelling an existing license if a firm has breached it would probably be less problematic.

Reasonably sure that Qualcomm aren’t claiming their X Elite cores are free of Nuvia created IP. Rather that Arm can’t prevent the transfer of that IP to Qualcomm.

Not quite. Qualcomm had an existing architecture license but with lower royalty rates than Nuvia’s. They claim they can sell Nuvia derived designs under that license with it’s lower royalty rates.

What’s missing from most of these analyses is the perspective that Arm really doesn’t want Qualcomm to become a dominant - architecture license (ALA) based - vendor of Arm based SoCs. Bad for Arm and for Arm’s other customers and the ecosys

In that case I have no idea why Automattic would attempt to try to get WPE to license the trademark.

That’s easy - limiting potential liability if they lose. It’s not an admission of guilt though.

Fair enough - I can see there are limits but the material in Automattic’s lawsuit didn’t seem that problematic. Not sure how the law can distinguish between ok and too much use of ‘WordPress’.

As I understand it the claimed trademark infringement is WPE saying they ‘provide WordPress hosting’. If they are successful can anyone built an opens source hosting business?

Like many here I suspect I care less about who wins the litigation than about the third parties - businesses, individuals and at least one major charity - who will have been affected by Matt’s and Automattic’s actions. Where is the blog po

Your argument is that because the 4004 was built to power a calculator that disqualifies it as a microprocessor? Independent of the actual nature of the 4004 itself and its potential applications beyond its first intended use? Can’t see how
