Hello clueless. First things first, Nokia sued Apple and Apple pays them a tidy sum in royalties.

Second, Nokia stock was at $40 in 2008. So your lame rage comic is misleading at best and a troll at worst, since it omits the decline from $40 to $12. Go back to 4 chan and troll there.

Third, many of their patents are hardware patents with actual innovations in telecommunications, not XYZ swipe to unlock but on the internet or phone like the other lawsuits out there.
