Remember when Steve Jobs unveiled the iPhone, and proclaimed, to much applause, that they patented the hell out of it? Well, apparently Apple likes to boast about its own patents, but when it comes to dealing with other's they're not so willing. That is, if you believe Nokia: the largest phone manufacturer in the world has sued Apple for patent infringement.

Protection from whom? Do big companies really need protection? It's the little companies and individuals that need protection, but they can't afford it.
Big companies don't need protection, they need money. And innovation = money on the long term. Big companies should think for the long term. No R&D budget - slow and painful death.
