Gemini version available ♊︎Nokia is Suing Android Directly, Using Patents; Microsoft’s Elop to Blame
Nokia loves Microsoft’s agenda
Summary: Nokia, led by Microsoft, is suing Android players over their Android products
Stephen Elop, serial destroyer of companies, on numerous occasions said he would use Nokia's patents after he had infiltrated then company. Here is some news which shows that not only proxies like MOSAID are used by Nokia to harm Android (there are lawsuits already):

Apple Gets Support From Old Foe in Injunction Bid

HTC slays Nokia’s two-headed Android patent dragon in Germany
Nokia has lost a patent-infringement lawsuit it brought against rival phone-maker HTC. Nokia was upset about the way HTC’s Android phones talked to Google app stores, claiming the communication ripped off its protected technologies.
A German court ruled HTC did not infringe the Nokia-owned patent EP0812120 – called the ’120 patent. Nokia has been told to pay HTC’s legal costs.
Somehow we missed this latter lawsuit. It is a clear case of Nokia attacking Android directly. It’s significant enough to note. █
