The relevant question is "Should companies be granted patent rights over things they have not invented (or if they are commonsense and invented independently by others) and use these to limit competition?"

No point in replying to all of your Red Herring reply.
In Seoul Korea Apple was found guilty of infringing two or more Samsung patents, which were actual technology patents and not trivial window dressing like Apple's patents. As I previously stated they both infringed each other and that is just the way things work. Steve Jobs himself said "Good artists copy great artists steal". Link |

These are questions for lawyers and judges, on a case by case basis.

What is really needed is an overhaul of the entire patent system with no lawyers allowed in the process. Trivial patents like those Apple is flaunting are just not worthy of patent protection, or even copyright. They are just one step in the progress of fashion trends that have nothing to do with real creativity on a fundamental level. |

Unless you have actual proof of that statement perhaps you should mention that it was just your not so humble opinion.
FWIW, I do not think that it will happen either, because the self serving legal profession would have too much to lose if antiquated institutions were modernized and clarified. |
