Re: Troll Sues Apple For Daring To Plug Headphones Into iPhone

said by Msradell:
Glad to hear that someone is finally hitting Apple with the same thing they have been doing to others!

Apple is without any doubt the absolute Patent Troll King.

an who have they sued for that?

and blame the patent office for giving such a stupid patent.

i do think all software patents are stupid and need to be shared, but calling apple patent trolls is just not even close to being the definition of what it means.

Apple has become the poster boy for patent trolls. Sure they make products but name a single innovation that Apple has created or I'll even make this easier, name what is innovative about any iProduct that Apple makes. Apple is simply the evolution of products and in true Sony fashion and hardly worthy of a single real patent, hence why the patent office has to go as they wouldn't know real innovation if it kicked in the doors and ripped them a new one so they simply grant a patent for anything.
