Microsoft blasts sueball at Samsung over Android patent royalties

Sorry but it's you that don't understand.

>>Samsung, Apple and loads of other large companies have equally, if not more so, questionable business practices

I understand this point about Apple, but fail to do it in case of Samsung. Or is it that both the attacker and the attacked share the same criminal case, hence share equal responsibility?

>>MS has at least learnt (in some cases) and rather than try to bring everything to court again and again

Have you heard about the Rockstar patent suit? And MS is really good and equally filthy at NDA business. The reason is they don't want their multiply impeached reputation to suffer even more when details get divulged.

>>As for the hidden nature of those patents, aren't all patents available for public view?

If you know the specific numbers, MS never publicized it before. The only light that had been lit on those was this for which Microsoft shouldn't be thanked at all, it's rather the Chinese government that have done.
