Steve Jobs felt Android was a 'stolen product'
Found on CNet News on Friday, 21 October 2011
Steve Jobs felt that Android was a rip-off of Apple's iOS and wasn't going to settle any lawsuits with Google or its partners no matter what.
"I will spend my last dying breath if I need to, and I will spend every penny of Apple's $40 billion in the bank, to right this wrong. I'm going to destroy Android, because it's a stolen product. I'm willing to go thermonuclear war on this."
As far as I remember, MacOS is based on Unix, so others seem to borrow ideas too. Maybe some quotes from Steve are a good idea at this point: "We have always been shameless about stealing great ideas", "It's more fun to be a pirate than to join the navy", "I've always wanted to own and control the primary technology in everything we do.".
