In this situation, after Apple sold millions of phones, Moto decided to
rescind the 3rd part beneficiary license only in regards to Apple, not any
other phone maker that bought the same Qualcomm chips.
Apple hasn't paid Moto bc a lot of these issues haven't been decided yet by
courts.
Such as, does a licensee have to make a counter offer to what they
perceive as an unreasonable offer?
If Apple thinks that they are protected by their patent exhaustion theory, are
they required to make a counter offer?
The courts haven't decide the principals/precidents of these matters yet, so
no one is guilty of anything yet.
This stuff is just getting silly. Apple owns some Nortel/Rockstar/4G patents
but they have so far not played any of those cards yet. They are trying to
keep higher moral ground. They disagree with using SEPs for
injunctions/import band.
If Google wants to keep raising the stakes, then it is going to go
thermonuclear.
With a lot of government regulation which is the last thing google wants
A government magnifying glass on all of Googles businesses
