Here's what Google's plan was:
1. Acquire patents from a failing or failed company - Nortel
2. Form a company that produces nothing - Starrock Consortium
3. Sue large company for settlement or damages - Apple and Microsoft
4. File suit in patent holder friendly jurisdiction - Filed in East Texas
1. True - Google did bid for the Nortel patent portfolio
2. Outright lie - you made that up.

3. Another outright lie - why make up crap?
4. Trifecta of lies - congrats. I am embarrassed for you.
To say you have no proof of what you wrote is a massive understatement. You have no clue what Google's plan was. Neither do I. Regardless, Google's "plan" in no way negates Apple's Rockstar actions. Instead of addressing what I wrote, you pull out some fictitious red herring, straw man stuff. I seriously don't understand how you thought this was okay.
Apple and the others in their group offered more. Obviously they paid for (a) the right to use these patents and not be sued and (b) the right to sue others. And that is exactly what Google would have paid for.
This straw man still fails to address the topic of my quote. There was never a question of who won the bid or what they planned to do with the patents. My assertion was Apple, through Rockstar,
did the exact same thing Smartflash was accused of doing. I had no idea of Apple's plan. I do know what they did though.
Now you must help me, but where did Apple actually sue Google using the Nortel patents? I must have missed that.
October 2013 Rockstar sued Google, Samsung, HTC, LG and a number of other companies. Google countersued in December of 2013. Settlement was reached in November of 2014. What? Did you actually think I was making this up about the lawsuit?
I didn't miss that Google actually _did_ sue Microsoft for $4 billion using patents they bought from Motorola, and they lost their case. And I didn't miss that Samsung tried to sue everyone and was threatened in the EU with a 13 billion dollar fine if they didn't stop their anti-competitive behaviour.
You love the straw man don't you? What does this have to do with the topic at hand? A topic you neglected to address; choosing instead to talk about everything else but. As I told Gasu E. earlier, I am will to discuss anything as long as we engage in honest dialogue, free from made up stuff.
