It took 7 years!?!? for this case to finish?

New business model:

  Violate GPL
  Earn money for 6 years
  Pay massive salaries
  Go bankrupt on the 7th


Welcome to the Law System.

But there are good reasons for the delay. Presumption of innocence, injunctions for relief etc all take time to consider.


Isn't this case law though? If so this case will be cited in future cases: it paves the way for future rulings on this.

Future rulings are likely to come earlier making the new business model less viable.
