    You don’t really have to say “alleged” if they’ve gotten a judgement against them in a court.

        The current patent system greatly benefits the mega corporations. A small company could never make a phone because of the insane patent minefield owned by the mega corps.

          Yeah they basically set up a mutually assured destruction patent stalemate with the existing big players. Any new entrant gets blown to high hell.

          It looks to me like they’re lobbying to do the same with “AI” right now. They want to set up some stupid protectionist racket where it’ll be as impossible to use a cheap chatbot as it is to buy a cheap EV in the states.

    “Apple’s Taptic Engine is ​fundamentally different from Taction’s technology, which Taction’s own testing of Apple’s products confirmed during trial,” Apple ​said in response

    But im not seeing lots of details on easy searches. You’re usually allowed to do something a different way though?
