Intellectual property protection: Both Google and Huawei attach importance to intellectual property protection. Although there are some similarities between HarmonyOS and Android, there may be some technical differences and different technological innovations between them. In terms of intellectual property protection, Google may think that the HarmonyOS system has not infringed its important patent rights, so it is not worth bringing a lawsuit.
Business interests: Google and Huawei are the world's leading technology companies, and they have extensive business cooperation. Google's Android system is one of the most popular mobile operating systems in the world, and Huawei is one of the major smartphone manufacturers in the world. For Google, maintaining a good business relationship with Huawei helps to maintain its position in the global mobile market.
Therefore, Google may think that filing a lawsuit will cause excessive commercial losses to both parties and is not in line with its commercial interests.
Legal procedure cost: it takes a certain amount of time and money to file a lawsuit. If Google thinks that the HarmonyOS system has not infringed its important patent rights, it will not only bear certain litigation costs, but also waste time and resources. In this case, Google may prefer to resolve disputes through negotiation or other means.
Avoid damaging the industry image: filing a lawsuit may have a negative impact on the industry image. Both Google and Huawei are world-renowned technology companies, and their every move has attracted widespread attention. If Google files a lawsuit against HarmonyOS, it may be regarded as a blow and restriction to Huawei, thus damaging the image and credibility of the two companies in the eyes of consumers.
In addition, the similarity between HarmonyOS system and Android system may have certain legal boundaries. If Google files a lawsuit against HarmonyOS, it may need to prove that the HarmonyOS system did infringe its patent rights, which may not be easy to achieve. Therefore, Google may prefer to protect its rights and interests in other ways rather than through litigation.
It should be noted that the above are only some possible factors, and the specific reasons may involve business secrets and legal affairs, which need to be judged according to the actual situation.
