Apple are at it again

Apple was granted a patent last week that will enable it to wirelessly disable the camera on iphones in certain locations, sparking fears that such techniques could be used to prevent citizens from communicating with each other or taking video during protests or events such as political conventions and gatherings.

So not only do they employ people who work 16 hour shifts [1], make them work in unsafe conditions [2], but they feel the need to go after any company who is a threat to them. The list could go on and on.

Fuck apple.

Sounds like ignorant fanboi rant to me

A company defending IP rights??? Who ever heard of such a thing! especially when the opposition has such a blatant copy (until Galaxy III)
And as for Apple using the same company that probably made your machine & countless others world wide, yes fuck Apple & Apple alone for the shit working conditions at a company almost all electronic goods makers use

So, it's the Apple companies fault, that other companies have copied their software?

I'm confused.

Wasn't windows mostly designed at Apple, then stolen by a couple guys working for gates? I somehow think they have a pretty good reason to take legal action for software theft of any sort.

But I'm no geek, you cunts carry on about consumer rights and how corporations should take just wear the crime.

Apple is out to make money like everyone else in the business. I have never felt the slightest inclination to buy any Apple product and I doubt I ever will. I find cheaper and more flexible products elsewhere.

How are Samsung phones a copy of Apple phones? It's like saying that a CBR is a copy of a GSXR just because they both have fairings and the wheels are the same size.

I read that it was a software copy, not hardware. You don't think that shit loads of that stuff is the same? I'm a technophobe and I can see they drive the same a lot of the time.

iOS and Android are so different that it's hardly worth making the comparison. The hardware is vastly different, too. Even though they're both based on *nix, the kernels are not the same, so they're a lot different from one another. Android is based on GPL whereas iOS uses a proprietary closed source platform.

ummm...

Apple scored a sweeping legal victory over Samsung on Friday as a US jury found the Korean company had copied critical features of the hugely popular iPhone and iPad and awarded the US company $1.05 billion (NZ$1.295 billion) in damages.

The jury deliberated for less than three days before delivering the verdict on seven Apple patent claims and five Samsung patent claims - suggesting that the nine-person panel had little difficulty in concluding that Samsung had copied the iPhone and the iPad.

Because the panel found "willful" infringement, Apple could seek triple damages.

That is completely over my head. There are enough similarities however to convince a jury, who have heard all the evidence, and since that is the system in which these things must be proven, I will accept it, over your word.

Unless you took part in the design of the software for one or more that is?
