I understand the issue of patents. A lot of time, money, and research go into product design. Here, I am sympathetic with Apple in that regard.
On the other hand, if the stuff that is being patented are unavoidable designs that pretty much everybody has to use to make a product work, then it’s like one car company patenting the use of four tires or gasoline and then barring, or licensing at exorbitant prices, other company’s use of the same design.
