                    Somehow Samsung is hit by karma on multiple fronts all at once. How it's name became so stinky so fast is incredible.

                    Simply unbelievable how Xiaomi for example is actually looked on favourably compared to Samsung, something simply not possible a short year or two ago.

                                Am sure samsung understand how all this hiden agreement can affect your company. paying royalty for nothing patent (like suare and rounded edge shape phone of apple ) that's the reason why they are trying to develop their own phone operating system. Apple collected $1billion Micro$oft is trying to collect thiers may be when sammy start using their own phone operating system google will be runing down for their own $1billion. Every one want to have a piece of a successful company

                                  Good Samsung stay defiant. Microsoft's future is grim. It's about time this company stop releasing that windows crap all over again.

Samsung attacks other companies with their patents too. Just look at how they illegally tried to extort Nokia using information they got from the Apple trial. Samsung has been sued by companies from around the world for trying sleazy things.

You forgot that Motorola was at the time an American company and was stripped by another US company ( google ). It's not USA Vs rest of the world it's all about making money. do some research and you'll see for example how many US big company is actually owned by foreign investor.
