This document proves that the meme is false and that Apple did not attempt to protect 'rounded corners'. Apple asserted a design patent that protects the overall appearance of the iPhone - the 'trade dress'. Rounded corners are one of many attributes that describe the appearance of the iPhone. If you copy enough attributes - as the court ruled that Samsung did, you have copied the appearance. Taking a single element out of context is a lie that Samsung originated, designed to give the appearance that Apple attempted to protect a ridiculously broad concept which the documents show that they did not do. |

You are straight up lying here. Observe the patent: http://www.google.com/patents/USD593087
'many attributes' in this case meaning 'two attributes'.
Reading your post history you have a short history of only posting pro Apple and repeating many similar assertions. Yet you have the gall to accuse me of being a paid shill. Hilarious.
