Oof, right before the holidays too. What a blow to their sales.
I wonder if Apple will use the estimated sales losses as damages when they counter-sue the other party in the patent dispute. Apple is taking “preemptive” steps to comply with an order that is not in effect yet – perhaps it’s a long con to entangle the patent holder in a prolonged legal battle so as to devalue and acquire them.
Not much of a blow when they are stopping the 21 and 24 most people will have already bought by then. They should have been ordered to cease immediately.
Agreed, they probably should have been ordered to stop a while ago.
That said, Apple is the largest company in the U.S. by a number of metrics, so the fact that the government would cross them at all is kind of a surprise.
