from your link: "STØR was acquired by IKEA in 1992".

 

Well, next info for Wikipedia: "Samsung  was acquired by Apple in 2013".

It is actually part of a spew in every direction approach to denying / defending the copycats.
1. Deny that Smasung copied Apple
2. Argue that everybody copies everyone else
3. Argue that Apple didn't invent the (whatever)
4. Picturezzz!!!

So your comment is vacuous.

Oooooow that told me.

It must be terribly galling for the haters to notice that all this cool stuff has to be tainted by passing through Apple on its way to general access by decent people who would never demean themselves by purchasing "Crapple" products, which of course are for sheep.  I wonder if they ever consider that if not for Apple we'd likely all be shopping in Best Buy for button studded shit boxes championed by tech zealot assholes?  You know, like it was before Apple remade those markets.

And, of course, the corollary that Samsung and others could also try to protect their own IP but, out of benevolence to humanity, they prefer to share, unless driven to use it to defend themselves from Apple's predatory litigation.

lol Love number 4. That does seem to be how their final argument breaks down when trying actual write a defend for the indefensible doesn't work.

I would add that it all starts with them saying whatever Apple has done is stupid and useless and proof that Apple will fail before they eventually say it was what everyone else was doing all along.

Was apple patented all store should belong to them ?

Microsoft store is OK. Sony store is OK. But, Samsung store is bad ?

 

And don't forget Apple store itself is copy of "Sony Style store"

... All store are belong to us!

 

The difference is, Apple NEEDED a store, Samsung DOESN'T, unless they intend on making even more garbage and need a neat little place to collect it all for the garbage man.

You're a really lousy troll, and that just makes me sad to see the trade dying a painful death, all because of people like you having an inability to not fucking suck at everything.
