“We thank the jury for their time and appreciate their consideration but are disappointed with the verdict and plan to appeal. This case has been going on for over a decade, with patents that are unrelated to the core operations of our products and have been found to be invalid by the patent office. Cases like this only serve to stifle innovation and harm consumers,” the spokesperson said in the statement.

In March, Apple paid VirtneX $454 million over earlier versions of the VPB-on-Demand. The verdict of $502.8 million in royalty is connected to different litigation involving a newer version of VPN-on-Demand.
