Samsung Display has scored an unprecedented victory against its rival BOE for stealing its OLED technology.
In 2023, it filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Chinese firm BOE with the United States International Trade Commission (ITC).
Samsung recently won that lawsuit, and the commission’s ruling is expected to effectively ban BOE’s products from entering the USA.
No, this is just a really stupid headline. The ITC is specifically a body that bars products found to be infringing from importation into the US market. It cannot allow award damages but the bar can be circumvent by a deal with the patent owner. This is literally the function of this particular body.
