US Supreme Court rules for Google over Oracle

How is their value 0? A good API still requires a usable implementation to stand behind it. As an example, the Windows API is quite valuable, but look at how fast WINE has to move just to stand still to try and keep up. Or Microsoft with the Linux API in WSL1.

Also note that this ruling was decided on fair use. It doesn't say APIs are protected by copyright. Also doesn't say that they aren't. It says that *regardless* of the status, *Google* is protected by fair use for its use in *Android*. Not for use in GCS, not Amazon for AWS.
