    "Basically, if you work around a patent's claim by ommiting step(s), but the user(s) are able to perform these ommitted steps, then you are liable."

    Right. By analogy: now I can be liable for murder because I sold someone a gun legally, and he used it to kill somebody. He's not liable, but I am! That's just loony.

    It's not the crime you are deemed guilty, it's the intent. "Cognito ergo terrorist"

    Alcohol drinking Muslims. Is that true radicalism or an oxymoron?

    Don't like the government-mandated shutdown of your vehicle in certain areas (i.e. your self-driving car will refuse certain destinations)? We'll make sure you can't hack the nav system.

    It's more like not letting the parameters being altered so as to run on water. One for BIG OIL.

    While Judge Koh suggests Apple is “smoking crack” in another case, I'm going to suggest that judges are smoking crack here.

    What other natural phenomenon can I patent? The shape of a quartz crystal perhaps?

    It just goes to show that the separation of corporate and State is needed more now than ever before.

    Everybody I see is either texting or surfing the web and rarely speaking. This "phones cause brain cancer" concern eliminated itself due to a change in user behavior.

    Of course the levels will be higher, then, Cons-gress will bail out the banksters and Wall-em-up Street.

    Another strike for freedom, um, er...I mean for Corporate Pharma! Just think of it, it's for the children you know. Any corporate treatment is not harmful, has no bad side-effects, until the stockholders meeting. Who says the 1% doesn't have the other 99%'s interest at heart?

    I was wary about stretching it into 2 movies. Its not that long of a book, not much actually happens. 3 movies is just a money grab by the studio.
