A slightly-critical point, which seems 99.9% ignored here. I found an article - https://www.iphonehacks.com/2021/07/apple-threatens-exit-uk-... - saying "A UK high court judge has ruled that Apple has infringed on two patents of Optis Cellular.". But nothing more.

If the 2 patents are "good quality" - really novel, not a bit obvious to actual experts in that niche (at the time), etc. - then the reasonable (morally, not legally) argument would be about what is a fair rate for Apple to pay to use them.

If the 2 patents are "the usual patent system abuse crap" - vague walls of buzzwords, prior art but with "using $NameOfNewTechnology" inserted in a bunch of places, or such - then the reasonable argument (again morally) would be about why our wretched legal and patent systems are so badly infested with such toxic swill.

But Apple's seeming threat to exit the UK market makes for a lot of drama, and that's mostly what people care about.
