AndroidPit - I knew this day would come. I can’t say that I hoped for it, but in all honesty, it was inevitable. Apple has been very busy lately in doing all it can to ban as many Android devices as it can, and HTC, Samsung, and Motorola have all recently got a small taste of the Apple juice lately. But something has changed: Google now owns Motorola, and aren’t wasting any time in defending their new acquisition, as they are now seeking a sales ban on the iPhone, iPad, and Mac computers in the US. This time, it’s personal, and contains a twist that could potentially make this particular lawsuit a very dangerous one for Apple.
Samsung VS. Apple was interesting, but this one will be edge of your seat.
"Keep in mind that the deal only applies to Germany so far, and that Google’s attempted sales ban on Apple products in the US has no direct link to this licensing deal"
Google has all phone manufacturers to back them up!
LOL LOL LOL Crapple is done!! xDDD
Read the article?
Justice
hopefully this goes well and apple feels the heat.
if they can win a patent war over some bs circles and shapes then google has won this already.
hopefully this brings upon the end :D

Apple needs to die
*somewhere Rodney King is turning in his grave*
and stop suing Samsung, HTC, Motorola etc... I doubt it though.
Well now! Where is my popcorn??? things getting interesting.
Sure, its absurd the amount of things apple has patented, but its not really Apple's fault the US patent system is crap and you can patent the most general stuff.
Think about it, if Apple(or any other company) didnt patent the crap out of everything they do, whats there to stop any random company to file that patent and sue them?
If there is anything wrong in all of this, its the current patent system
You're absolutely right, and I'm not. I literally couldn't give a damn what he buys. But labeling anyone who supports action against Apples patent trolling a "butthurt andriod/PC fanboy" is ridiculous, but I'd still rather be one than some magpie, won over by shiny plastic and a piece of fruit on any old piece of junk.
Ideally these patent wars should just stop altogether. All the companies involved are pathetic, some are worst than others though. I don't like Google either, but if Apple continue to think they can do whatever they want, then more power to anyone says otherwise.

They bought out Motorola not because of their fanbase, tech, business workings, design or history but for their patents. They stripped the company of everything good and took what they wanted.
At least Apple patents were created and not bought.
Give it to Apple for being passionate about their products from designing to selling them to their customers. Google don't put time or love into anything they do, just reap the money for their investors pockets.
Why is everyone using Kharma catch phrase? How many people here are even Buddhists?
Regardless of whether or not Apple is passionate or not, if they infringed on the patent they could be held liable. If Apple was truly passionate as you say, then they would have done what they should have done in the first place and obtained the rights to use that technology.
How do Google users sleep when their identity as a human is slipping away? Being sold to multinational companies for their marketing campaigns or governments. No privacy or privacy? Freedom but at what price?
Google will soon even know what tooth paste you use before you go to bed.
all these corporations don't give the slightest shit about you or your family, they care about your money.
they step all over the laws and exploit loopholes in anything that can be.
what is with you and your corporate cheerleading?
you think Apple cares about your privacy? lol.
the people of the world grow more sheep by the day and become free mouth pieces for these companies.

Windows destroyed Mac
Android is destroying iOS
Apple like to brag a lot and rip people off a lot.
And of course the other problem with apple is that if they screw something up its the other persons fault. "Flash is bad"... of course it works on your competitors devices, but you wanna look for a scape goat. Loved that iphone that you had to turn a certain way in order to get reception... that one was beautiful when they blamed people for holding it hte wrong way lol.
