EOC week 5:Apple-Samung Patent Battle

Samsung verses Apple patent war was a showdown among two big companies who both believe they were infringed on. Samsung was told to stop selling and the products that patents were infringed on. Apple wants Samsung to stop that older Samsung cellphone models be banned permanently because of the patent battle the two companies have. Both apple and Samsung believe that they were infringed on and both companies believe that both their patents were infringed upon that they lost money. The late owner of Apple Steve Jobs said “stolen product." When it came to Samsung operating system and how Google play store and android infringed on some apple patents.  The most famous phones in the case are Samsung’s Galaxy smart phones and tablets. Since then people have called the two companies school children and the government being the principal. Samsung phones didn't stay banned forever because Obama and his team overturned the ban. The ITC ruled that Samsung infringed on the swiping your finger across the screen patent. They never said that apple invented the swiping method across the screen but that did patent the method. Samsung has implied that they changed some ideas around to avoid crossing apple patents in future phones. Samsung has also said that the “negative ruling against them in the case could cause dire consequences for consumers. “Samsung also said that the ruling would have a shortage in cellphones to U.S carriers.
