A U.S. court, last September, ruled that Meta will have to pay walkie-talkie app-maker Voxer $175M for patent infringement, writes Ashley Belanger for Ars Technica. Over the ensuing months the Facebook parent tried "to avoid paying up by requesting a judge either reject the jury’s verdict or give Meta a new trial," added the story. Meta’s requests were denied by a federal judge this week making it likely Meta will have to pay running royalties "for illegally copying Voxer’s technology and using it to launch Facebook Live and Instagram Live," said Ars.
