Florian Mueller's mysterious take...Part 2

Authored by: jonathon on Friday, June 01 2012 @ 12:47 AM EDT

>before a higher Court permanently shuts the door on Copyright protection for
APIs.

Pity the Appeals Court can't simply write "Certiorari Denied".

Florian Mueller's mysterious take...Part 2 - Authored by: Wol on Friday, June 01 2012 @ 06:15 PM EDT

No, FloMo has been quite clear

Authored by: Anonymous on Friday, June 01 2012 @ 09:19 AM EDT

That he regards the fair use claim in this case as
ridiculous.

His view is that the API SSO is copyrightable, and Google
should lose on fair use, estoppel and all other defenses.

He goes on to explain that even if Google "got away with
what it did" (nicely implying guilt even after being cleared
in court), that Android has vast and insurmountable IP
issues and that someone sooner or later will make them pay

His hatred has made him strong, but blind.
