"When we sued Samsung in April of last year," Apple's SVP and general counsel Bruce Sewell told us, "one of our assertions was that that company had modified its original design to include 'square icons with rounded corners' that were copied directly from our iOS icons.

Possibly the best April Fool's joke this year. Close runners-up include Etsy taking over the city of Portland, and George Tekai announcing his lead role in a new Star Trek movie.
