Because they can't patent it and troll everyone else for money.
What are some examples of Apple being patent trolls? Genuine question
Samsung Lawsuits: Apple’s series of lawsuits against Samsung over alleged patent infringements related to smartphone and tablet designs and functionalities have been seen by some as overly aggressive. These lawsuits have led to significant financial penalties for Samsung and have been viewed as attempts to stifle competition rather than protect genuine innovations.
App Store Patents: Apple has been known to enforce its patents related to the App Store, targeting other companies that have tried to create similar platforms. This has sometimes been criticized as an attempt to maintain a monopoly over app distribution for iOS devices.
HTC Lawsuit: In 2010, Apple filed a lawsuit against HTC for allegedly infringing on 20 Apple patents related to the iPhone’s user interface and underlying architecture. Some viewed this as an aggressive move to slow down the growth of Android devices.
Patent Assertions Against Smaller Companies: There have been instances where Apple has asserted its patents against smaller companies or startups. Critics argue that these actions can stifle innovation and competition, as smaller companies often lack the resources to fight prolonged legal battles against a giant like Apple.
App Store Patents
"Apple denies that, based on their common meaning, the words ‘app store’ together denote a store for apps"
Actual quote from a legal filing by Apple in 2011. It's about copyright but the effect and intent is the same. They wanted Amazon to not use the term "app store".
Did you generate this with chat gpt? And that’s not being a patent troll. A patent troll is specifically a company that buys up patents, that they do not intend to use and never do, and then sue for them. E.g. a company that does nothing, produces no value, and simply takes others to court for what they own.
Yeah it was generated, and you are right. I’m not sure how to format stuff to show it’s AI generated so I just use the quotes.
They quite literally tried to claim that they invented the rectangle with rounded corners....
