They've always been this way.

There's no wrongdoing here, no matter how much you wish there was.

Use of legal mechanisms in order to settle dispute are not inherently right or wrong, for anyone.

So what.

They have the opportunity to prove their case and answer Apple's claim. If they cannot or will not do that successfully, then they were in the wrong, and life's tough. If they are successful, then Apple will be denied their claims and will probably pay costs. This stuff happens every damn day. Trademarks need to stand up to scrutiny, whether you're a one-man operation or multinational. If Apple's claim is truly unfounded then Fangguo has nothing to worry about.

The courts provide answers to a test of (material) claims.

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, brah.

Seems to me you just proved the point I was trying to make in my original post. (The part you edited out)

Also, bring unnecessary and frivolous legal action which, in and of itself might cause harm, is not without ethical implications. It is not beyond right and wrong.

I was driving by an orchard today and there were thousands of trademark infringements hanging from the trees! I was very confused and wandered around the orchard with my macbook trying to find a genius who could help me. Get real Apple. You make great products but really, you are really stretching it here.

I immediately saw LG, not Apple.

so do I! when i see this logo at first sight, i perceive it is LG rather than Apple.
