 |  Catz claims Oracle bought Sun to protect its own products We did not have a court battle with Google in mind Oracle told a court that it did not acquire Sun Microsystems in 2009 to launch a copyright lawsuit against Google, but rather to protect its products that relied on Sun's software. Oracle is claiming that Android violated its copyright on parts of the Java programing language. Google said it should be able to use Java without paying a fee under the fair-use provision of copyright law. Oracle acquired Sun in 2010 and sued Google after negotiations broke down. The jury was deadlocked in a trial in 2012. If the current jury rules against Google on fair use, then it would consider Oracle's request for $9 billion in damages. http://fudzilla.com/news/mobile/4069...s-own-products |
