Visual Depiction of Who Is Suing Who in Mobile

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the pretty-poor-graphic dept.

Although the graphic itself won't win an award for design, Norman submitted a story about who's suing who in the mobile universe. From Apple to Qualcomm and pretty much everyone in between, it's a pretty impressive mess.

    Microsoft isn't delivering a product, so they can't be sued.

    Can you imagine if what is going on now in the mobile space had been happening as personal computing took off during the 80s? We'd have gotten just short of nowhere, what with all the patent suits crippling things and walled garden lock down forcing people to find exploits so they can regain basic levels of control.

    I can't help that this piss poor, anti-user behavior in the mobile market is going to ripple up into the general computing space in the next few years and generally make life hell for anyone who shows an interest in computers beyond Facebook, e-mail and the latest console game.

    As a matter of fact, I did just that. Theirs is a hopeless mess of spaghetti.
