It seems that this time Apple has faced very serious charges. Competing manufacturers are confident that the company is working with a kind of "patent troll" which blames everyone and everything in the theft if his patents, and Apple is not in the list of accused.
According to Apple Insider, The same "patent trollĀ» Digitude Innovations,, sues many major mobile players in the market, namely, Research in Motion, HTC, LG, Motorola, Samsung, Sony, Amazon and Nokia. As you can see, Apple is not on the list. Moreover, in several cases we are talking about on the claims in lawsuits patentsWho served in the current year, Apple. That is, Digitude Innovations as it upholds the rights of Apple.
According to some reports, Apple has transferred its patents shell company Cliff Island LLC, whose physical address matches the address of the investor Digitude Innovations, Altitude Capital firm. That is, Digitude won the right to sue the other manufacturers like HTC and Motorola for the patents, which could somehow create competition for Apple development. It was learned that the business Digitude is precisely the acquisition of patents and litigation on this issue with other companies. Hence the name "patent troll."
There are suspicions that Apple is using Digitude as a mercenary in its patent battles. In this case, it is difficult to see Apple in a positive light, if the allegations are without foundation. After the transfer of patents shell company, which then deliberately suing because their competitors, looks very unflattering step.
