Just look at the results of patent. Large companies with money copy, despite of patents. Thats why all smartphones look the same and do the same. If its about Samsung against Apple, there will be endless lawsuits. If its Samsung against you, Samsung will go on using your patent and there is not much you can do against it. This is an old argument: patents protect large companies. It is still true.

Just imagine where the internet would be now, if every website developer had to face lawsuits from various ingenuous inventors, who happened to use his two lines of code before him. It would only be manageable to develop internet code by Google and Facebook, with enough lawyers in their backoffice.
