  1. Hey everyone – guess what tomorrow is? It’s the one-year anniversary of the verdict that has resulted in Apple not extracting one cent from Samsung! One year ago a jury decided that not only did Samsung infringe on Apple’s intellectual property, it did so willfully. And in the one year since, Samsung has continued to drag its feet, whine, cajole – and continue to rip off Apple while Koh’s circus continues to indulge the knock-off artists from Korea.
