    This is the second times Apple got caught red-handed for stealing, and there is no doubt there were many more cases where they got away with it.

      It’s fine if Apple steals though. However if a Chinese company does this, then woah woah woah hol’ up!

        Yeah, true… But, this case is not the best example of that, since Apple is getting punished quite serversly here. And, the fact they there was any punishment / lawsuit at all make the US looks like the fairer place to be. The Chinese big brothers would just swept it under rugs in favour of the bigger company from the get go.

        I’m sure I’ll get shit for this, but there’s a HUGE difference between patent infringement and outright reverse engineering of existing products. Apple appears to have done the former. Tons of companies in China do the latter as more or less an official policy.
