Samsung: the Korean word for criminal

Vanity Fair: The great smartphone war



According to various court records and people who have worked with Samsung, ignoring competitors' patents is not uncommon for the Korean company. And once it's caught it launches into the same sort of tactics used in the Apple case: countersue, delay, lose, delay, appeal, and then, when defeat is approaching, settle. "They never met a patent they didn't think they might like to use, no matter who it belongs to," says Sam Baxter, a patent lawyer who once handled a case for Samsung. "I represented [the Swedish telecommunications company] Ericsson, and they couldn't lie if their lives depended on it, and I represented Samsung and they couldn't tell the truth if their lives depended on it." -- Vanity Fair: The Great Smartphone War.




NYT writer is full of it.

NYT: Steve Jobs was a criminal. Vanity Fair: Samsung is a liar.

A pair of heavily re-tweeted hatchet jobs dance to the edge of libel.
