We have removed the product and will use our patent on it to prevent anyone else from making one in the future.
Doesn't the patent just document how it works so individuals can create and release 3D models of the device so anyone can create their own?
yes, but they would be able to take them down from stores
patent is already out, so that damage is done
it’s also a small damage, the issue is convenience and mass sale to consumers, it’s like disclosing meth recipes, if you want to figure it out it’s possible, but responsible companies try not to reproduce that massively
Or you can even just drive a pin into the speaker yourself given they've described exactly where it is.
Granted, the location of which was known years before they released this product, too. A single ifixit teardown reveals that much.
Who would be uncouth enough to violate a patent?
Even a stalker would draw the line there.
