Obama protects Apple from thermonuclear war backlash

Stefan Mileschin · 5th August 2013, 15:47

President Barack Obama has said that every time Samsung wins a court case he will veto the decision. So far he has not said what will happen every time Apple beats the South Korean company.

Effectively Obama has rewarded the antics of a patent troll which actually claimed it invented the rounded rectangle while taking no steps to protect Samsung from Apple's own trolling antics.

Victory by Samsung would have protected it from the iPhone 4 and some iPads entering the US from China if they used technology which the patent office and several judges ruled stole the company's ideas.

According to the China Post, it is the first time since 1987 that a president has interfered with an ITC order.

"This is an important element of the Administration's policy of promoting innovation and economic progress," the White House statement said.

The question is what Obama has done to stop Apple in its patent trolling - the company's late CEO Steve Jobs famously said a "thermonuclear war" would be waged against the competition.
