Arent most of those patents pure junk? Afair the only valid patent in there was something to do with FAT long filenames , and that one was killed with Linus help back in 2013.

I can't recall but I think many of them were User Interface related and rather specific.

Not like the Apple claim of "Rounded Rectangles" but I will admit that it did appear even at face value that both Apple and Microsoft had a strong case against HTC, Samsung, etc.

But I guess one of these makes better headlines for clickbait. YMMV.
