So it's ethical to copy and deceive but not to defend your own ideas?
Now Samsung has to either make a different enough phone, or pay Apple a cut. In any case, it's not like we're loosing much as consumers. Even if we are to absorb the extra costs of patenting some phone tech. A $20 more expensive phone? Big deal, that's less than the monthly phone bill. If anything, we might get some original UI concepts by Samsung in their effort not to fork for Apple patented concepts.
That said, there is a field, were patents are literally killing people, either by illness or by starvation, by technically inflating the cost of medicine and agriculture. Talking about Big Pharma and Monsanto patents. How about some outrage for those?
