Good! What an absolutely ridiculous argument. Glad it got booted right away.
It reminds me when it tried to patent a tap as a 0-length swipe. Scummy.
I'm glad that the EC countered the argument of Apple strongly. Because you'd assume that the legal team of Apple consists of some capable lawyers, possibly even old members of the EC? At some point I'm scared that even the EC would be outmatched but we're not there, it seems.
It was a pretty crap arguement given the European commission were able to counter the arguement using Apple's own marketing.
