Apple agree to pay out $98m but according to some on here they've done absolutely nothing wrong. Now I appreciate this is small change to Apple but big, profitable companies do not pay out this sort of money unless a. they know they have done something wrong and being. they believe that a court will impose a far, far higher penalty.
Why do people come on here just to twist the words of other people? I’ll explain it to you again! There are outcomes in the court that depend on things going right for the prosecution and the defence (or plaintiff and defence) to get their desired result. Part of it is based on the evidence and part are the judge/jury, and the way the arguments are presented. It seems there was definitely a 'case to answer' in this situation, which doesn’t mean guilt, it means there is enough for someone to have to decide (don’t twist my words there or make up more b.s.). Maybe Apple don’t want everything to be disclosed in the course of a trial even if they aren’t guilty, or maybe there is a level of guilt there? There could be a dozen reasons. I don’t know and if you aren’t a part of the case, neither do you.So they've decided to pay out for nothing then?
It is estimated that IF Apple did actually lose a lengthy trial (which is always a possibility), that it would cost them $1.5B. So they settled. Any speculation on why is pure stupidity and they should probably just go watch Judge Judy.
