If developers would stop developing on the asshat platforms, they wouldn't have to put up with it. The only reason this kind of crap goes on is because people allow it.
Outlaw what people _do_ with guns, which has plenty of room for some re-work. Simply making one, whether printing it, or otherwise, should be perfectly legal. Otherwise, you may as well outlaw making knives, screwdrivers, hammers, rope and anything else which could be used to do something illegal.
The SIII is like twice the size of an iphone. Nobody would ever confuse the two, no matter how rectangular or rounded or rows of icons. Microsoft never even took douchebaggery to this level.
This is more ADHD whack-a-mole style RPG rather than the kind where it takes you 20 minutes to decide if your Wizard should use Tiltowait or Katino on the first roll.
"I think the jury did an admirable job making sense of the case they were given. They certainly did better than much of the tech media, which have made a complete mess of the verdict."
The jury *completely* screwed up. They started by ignoring the prior-art argument[1] samsung made, and then the foreman proceeded to sway everyone[2] with an "I got my own patent so listen to me" bullshit. The jury was an ill-fated catastrophe from the beginning of deliberations.
Although this is a nice practice to keep your service off-the-beaten-path, it is still wise to monitor the connection logs and be able to recognize when an attack is happening. Too many people run their services on 5 digit ports expecting them to be "hidden" and it just doesn't work that way. Oftentimes, attackers will log connection banners and log them, only to come back later with a known exploit or 0-day. In this case it doesn't matter what port you listen on.
Attackers have all the time in the world to scan a full port range and sometimes they do it over the course of a weeks and even months in order to try and hide thier connection attempts or bypass tarpit measures. If you can, configure access to deny all traffic except the IP address you will be coming from. It's not always possible, but reduces attack vectors quite considerably.
As far as reporting them goes, I'd be surprised if that went anywhere until there is some kind of a dollar figure drawn up on losses due to a compromise.
The jury did not seem to think objectively [1] and also appear swayed by the foreman who seems to have gotten away with throwing out the biggest piece of evidence in Samsung's defense[2]. I was surprised that the trial went as it did, handled by a judge with very little experience[3], considering the future of the mobile industry was riding on it. "Rounded corners and Rectangular design"? Righ, Apple, you might as well be suing everyone in the industry becuase I can't find a device that _doesn't_ infringe on that. Apple went after Samsung because it's their biggest competitor.
Among other things not appropriate for children are Absolutism and Intolerance of conflicting perspective.
Atheists get pissed about religious people forcing their perspective on others but fail to see how they are doing the same. At the core of this whole debate is people failing to respect and be tolerant of others who do not share the same world view. That's what needs to be addressed. Otherwise, you may was well bring out the pitchforks and head up the witch hunt because that's how history is going to repeat itself.
Believe what you want, respect others may not see it that way. It's not OK to persecute people for being, or thinking, differently. Teach your kids that and everything will be better than it is now.
"[Hogan] the jury foreman, who is a patent holder himself told court officials that the jury didn't need the answer to its question to reach a verdict"
"The foreman told a court representative that the jurors had reached a decision without needing the instructions. "
"Hogan holds patents, so he took us through his experience. After that it was easier. "
"In fact we skipped that one," Ilagan continued, "so we could go on faster. It was bogging us down."...But we took our time. We didn't rush.
Seriously? They polled the CEOs and CFOs from major IT Industries and found out the wealthiest people in the industry were 'not sure'? I'd actually call that quite amazing when you consider wealth in the US often leans Right. No, topples.

How long before technology figures out a way to beat the slashdot effect?
For Apple, I'd say something with a snake will do.
I was thinking more along the lines of a certain feminine hygiene product.

I'd rather my tax dollars went to beer breweing anyway. It's either that or some military money pit facade.
I'm guessing the Strategic part doesn't refer to the location of the Reserve :/
It's an RPG.
Not in the classic sense however.
