During an appearance before a U.S. appeals court on Thursday, lawyers for Samsung sought to have vacated the $930 million judgement awarded to Apple earlier this year in a landmark patent infringement lawsuit, saying the sum was “absurd.”
No, what’s absurd is that Samsung made so much money from copying Apple’s design. The judgement against Samsung should have been much more.
I agree. But they have to play their ridiculous legal games.
Samsung has shown time and again that they have no interest in honor, fairness, legality, or doing the right thing. Huge fines are the only way of dealing with such a company.
A delay tactic? One of Samsung’s many tricks.
