the video compression patent is part of a standards package (if I remember right) and those have only minimal value. They have to be licensed to anyone on a &quot;fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory&quot; basis which means it&#x27;s not that valuable. The slide-to-unlock was Apple&#x27;s novelty and not part of a standard. Hence the claim that it was more valuable.<p>Of course now that the patent&#x27;s been invalidated it&#x27;s worth zero. Not several millions.
