Google v. Oracle America Oral Argument
1 hour, 38 minutesFor more than an hour the Supreme Court heard oral argument in Google v. Oracle America, a case on whether software code is copyrightable and warrants legal protection. This case can be traced back to 2007 as Google tried to launch its Android phone and used parts of Oracle's java software code to do so. This allowed for app developers to create apps without needing to use new code in the process. This code is called application programming interfaces (APIs) which allows for different software products to communicate with each other. Java code was created back in the 1990s by Sun Microsystems. Oracle bought the company out and the java code in 2010. Oracle sued Google for copyright infringement. Google argued the parts of code they used are not copyright protected. This case is being closely watched by tech giants and legal experts alike because the outcome could impact the future of software development and innovation. The justices have through June 2021 to issue a ruling.
