Is Apple surprised?

It seems to me that the current model for tech companies is..

. Do something clearly sketchy to build your market. It might be copyright violations, it might be lock-in.

. Grow/profit until someone cares.

. Hold off the court cases for as long possible

. When they finally go against you, it's probably too late since the new thing has come along.

. Wash rinse repeat.
