Chinese company uses leaked photos to copy, patent...
People defending GooPhone and making stupid comments about Apple? I agree Patent system's kinda broken. But if this is real, is real stupidity and height of IP theft.

How do you steal IP? Has someone broken into the patent office and rifled through the filing cabinets?

Technically it
is
possible to steal a copyright, by falsely claiming to be the owner. I presume you could do something similar with a patent.

It's not theft, they just found it on the floor and used it.
