Recent Oracle a dat in judecata Google pentru folosirea sintaxei Java in Android. Acum e randul Microsoft sa dea in judecata Motorola pentru incalcarea unor patente in cadrul telefoanelor cu Android.
Microsoft spune ca Motorola a incalcat patentele lor in ceea ce priveste sincronizarea contactelor, a e-mail-urilor si a evenimentelor din calendar. Dar nu se opreste aici, patente privind puterea semnalului si starea bateriei au fost, de asemenea, incalcate. Pana la urma, tot ce tine de un smartphone a fost incalcat.

Microsoft Files Patent Infringement Action Against Motorola
REDMOND, Wash. – Oct. 1, 2010 – Microsoft Corp. today filed a patent infringement action against Motorola, Inc. and issued the following statement from Horacio Gutierrez, corporate vice president and deputy general counsel of Intellectual Property and Licensing:
“Microsoft filed an action today in the International Trade Commission and in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington against Motorola, Inc. for infringement of nine Microsoft patents by Motorola’s Android-based smartphones. The patents at issue relate to a range of functionality embodied in Motorola’s Android smartphone devices that are essential to the smartphone user experience, including synchronizing email, calendars and contacts, scheduling meetings, and notifying applications of changes in signal strength and battery power.
We have a responsibility to our customers, partners, and shareholders to safeguard the billions of dollars we invest each year in bringing innovative software products and services to market. Motorola needs to stop its infringement of our patented inventions in its Android smartphones.”
Avand in vedere succesul de care se bucura e de inteles de ce toti ataca Android. Sunt curios de rezultatul acestor procese.
„… a range of functionality embodied in Motorola’s Android smartphone devices that are essential to the smartphone user experience …” – wow ! Deci diletantii astia de la Microsoft vor ca exclusiv ei sa ofere functionalitati esentiale utilizatorilor (nimeni altcineva) – cu alte cuvinte chiar isi doresc monopol, ceea ce aduce a imperialism.
„We have a responsibility to our customers, partners, and shareholders to safeguard the billions of dollars we invest each year in bringing innovative software products …” – iata cata grandomanie ! … De parca ei ar fi singurii oameni din Univers care gandesc.
Atacurile sunt nejustificate (atat din partea Oracle, cat si din partea Microsoft). Ce ditine acum Oracle nu e facut de ei, astfel nu au dreptul moral sa comenteze in legatura cu tehnologie recent achizitionata, iar Microsoft se comporta ca si cand ei ar fi singurii care au idei in sensul dezvoltarii de software.
maine patentez „aprinderea calculatorului” si va dau in judecata pe toti:D
