Shanghai Firm Sues Apple Over Siri
Its lonely at the top, and litigious.
Apple (AAPL) is facing another made-in-China lawsuit. This time over its software program Siri.
Shanghai-based Zhizhen Network Technology is alleging that Apple violated one of its patents for Zhizhen voice technology product called Xiao iRobot, Zhizhens chairman Yuan Hui said the company sent a legal notice to Apple in May, but did not receive a response. As a result of Apples silent no, Zhizhen filed a lawsuit in a Shanghai court on June 21, with that court announced on June 26 that it will hear the case soon, according to a China Daily story published Saturday, citing Yuan.
The lawsuit came days after Apple paid $60 million to Shenzhen-based Proview Technology to end an ugly legal battle over the naming rights of the iPad.
