> I have no idea why you're connecting one thread to another, other than that you've got this weird tendency to pretend you won arguments that either you didn't win, or didn't happen.
Sorry, I don't have to pretend. I win all of these with you. AAPL stock, HBO Go, patents, drones... take your pick. The thing about the internet is, these things last forever (unless the mod deletes the threads, that is).
> google and other android manufacturers are spending huge money on patent licenses.
Absolutely. That's always going to be a fact of life when it comes to IP. The difference is, with software, the courts/POTUS/Congress are changing the status quo. You still haven't addressed that part of it yet. I wonder why...
> if you thought there was any possibility of a reality where products were getting pulled, then you never understood the situation at all.
Easy to say with hindsight. I wonder why you've never said this before though.... because that's never been your position?

And why do I know you're lying? Because the reality is an injunction actually did happen, against the Galaxy Nexus. Good thing cooler minds prevailed and reversed it in appeals though:

> which you didn't.
Oh, didn't I? Then, again I ask you, why are the courts deciding in my favor?
I'm going to link this exchange:

For ease of reading, here are some quotes from you:
"I don't care in any direction that they patent things. everyone does."
"everyone does it tho... when you open your car door (if it's a nice car) all that shit, about how it works and makes it feel the way it feels, is patented. every bit of it."
"there is no motherfucking difference. the only difference is what you think you know about how these companies do business."
And here's my direct response:
"Yes, everyone patents shit, and everyone litigates. I've never denied that. But you've been popping off about how it's just "business as usual" when it's not. The extreme escalation has gotten to ridiculous heights and it's symptomatic of a broken system (confirmed by a U.S. judge that's probably smarter than everyone on this forum put together)."
Well, would ya look at that. "Symptomatic of a broken system". Such wise words being quoted. And damn, I said that in 2012? I need to pat myself on the back for that shit. Unsurprisingly, you replied back with some ad hominem shit... just like clockwork.
You didn't address it then, and of course you're not gonna address it now.
> they're not arguments. it's just you copying something someone else said that you don't get.
Do you want to reword this statement? I don't think it means what you think it means.
