Did you read the content? Google did copy the private API’s. I am a legacy Java person and it is blatant theft. Not rooting for Oracle in any sense, but it was a total copy.

I think APIs cannot be patented. Not sure what is the situation with Google vs Oracle.

Are you mixing copyrights with patents?
