So if the car you drive...

I don't drive an Android car and I didn't hire a third party to help me design
it. That would be Google.

If Google is found liable for damages they can and probably will sure their
contractor and recover their loss, including potentially part of the cost of
defending this suit.

Nonsense, it's the Android patents
Authored by: Ian Al on Monday, May 14 2012 @ 10:47 AM EDT
If you use an Android sat nav app in your car, you are guilty of using an Oracle
patented and unlicensed invention.

You can use the Oracle copyright stuff to your heart's content because you did
not do the copying. Not unless you are using an Android tablet to read the Java
API Specification, that is. That would be very naughty because it is an
unlicensed copy you downloaded.

You Java coders are a bunch of pirates!
