Do you think their new owners will want to engage in an extended legal battle with a large customer?

That's not how crime works.

I'm not sure about Nvidia themselves, but the ARM v. Qualcomm lawsuit was exactly that.

It’s not up to them. It is up to the DA.

You're telling me the DA would press charges without the actual harmed party wanting to press charges? I suppose it's possible but kinda hard without an actual plaintiff.

Do you think the prosecuting attorney has a substantial likelihood of a conviction?

if you could get a jury trial...

Do the prosecutors where you live have a hard time getting jury trials?
