It is related because if Apple were more interested in hiring capable people rather than grinding them down in face to face interviews, they probably would not have to abuse tech patents.
If you are so better informed - how come you missed the connection from the quote?
Btw, you are the one with the poor attitude “already posted”, forcing me to rub your nose in your own dirt.
WOW! A non sequitur, begging the question, and ad hominem, all in one three short paragraphs. Kudos.
You are drunk.
I see no related quotation that justifies the link.
Regardless of who posted it online, this article is almost word for word identical with what's been posted earlier on FR which ultimately links to the Wall Street Journal. They're from the same press release source, contain the exact same quotations, same statement from Ericsson's attorney, the same responses from Apple in the exact same order. . . or didn't you notice? I have already noted seventeen articles on this topic from different news sources, all almost completely identical in content.
Some of you rabid anti-Apple trolls have been complaining about too many Apple threads, or didn't you notice those posts? Shall we start threads for all seventeen because they are different sources? I shall repeat myself, a little louder to get through your thick skull:
THE ERICSSON TOPIC HAS ALREADY BEEN POSTED! WHY MUST WE HAVE TWO OR MORE THREADS ON THE SAME TOPIC IN WHICH TO FOLLOW THE COMMENTS?
You asked why I ping to these articles. Simple answer. I ping to these articles because more than SEVEN HUNDRED OF YOUR FELLOW FREEPERS HAVE PERSONALLY ASKED ME TO PING THEM TO APPLE THREADS, that's why. I told them I would. I keep my promises.
Your opinion is out voted.
