Google & Android are fucked!!

Oracle has a hands down winner in their lawsuit against Google in which they are seeking $1 billion plus. From an internal Google email:

Quote:
"What we've actually been asked to do (by Larry [Page] and Sergey [Brin]) is to investigate what technical alternatives exist to Java for Android and Chrome. We've been over a bunch of these, and think they all suck. We conclude that we need to negotiate a license for Java under the terms we need."
If Oracle can prove "willful infringement" you can treble their award if and when they win the case.

Based on their last quarterly report $3 billion is about 30% of their cash on hand.

It turns out that Java was uploaded to their source code by a surfer and they are protected by DMCA.

Sure, surfers had no way to add Java to their source code, because submissions were not accepted, but it was still a surfer and nothing will happen to them.

Well that leaves 70% doesn't it? And I'm sure they can make payment arrangements.

On the other hand, Oracle's CEO posted that he was glad they were using Java, so they can argue various forms of estoppel (Oracle said it was ok).
