It's no longer shocking how ignorant the Apple religious zealots are, so
here are just a few search terms for all the cases Apple lost that the
ignorant Apple religious zealots haven't heard about - but which everyone
else knows about since every one was discussed in this very newsgroup.
 For example:
  <https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-becerra-announces-113-million-multistate-settlement-against>
  "Attorney General Becerra Announces $113 Million Multistate
   Settlement Against Apple for Misrepresenting iPhone Batteries
   and Performance Throttling"

So...
...not a loss...
...and much less than a billion.

  <https://www.loc.gov/item/global-legal-monitor/2020-02-28/france-watchdog-agency-fines-apple-for-deceitful-practice/>
  "HOP accused Apple of intentionally causing older iPhone models to
   slow down in order to push owners to replace them with newer models."

So...
...not a loss.

   *Apple Settles with French Authorities over 25 Million Fine*
  <https://www.jonesday.com/en/insights/2020/03/apple-settles-with-french-authorities-over-25-mill>
  "Under French law, using misleading commercial practices
   is a criminal offense."

So...
...not even another case.

   *Apple pays out over claims it deliberately slowed down iPhones*
  <https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-67911517>
  "The US case dates back to December 2017, when Apple confirmed
   a long-held suspicion among phone owners by admitting it had
   deliberately (and secretly!) slowed down some iPhones."

So...
...not even another case.

   *France hits Apple with $27 million fine over the battery issue *
  <https://bgr.com/tech/iphone-battery-life-leads-to-27-million-fine-against-apple-in-france/>
  "Along with the fine, the agency is also compelling Apple on its
   website in France to display a notice telling consumers that the
   company has been found to have engaged in deceptive commercial
   practice by omission regarding the software updates starting with
   iOS 10.2.1 that throttled iPhone 6�s, as well as the iPhone SE
   and iPhone 7."

So...
...not even another case.

Both sides settled amicably...

 Since Apple was guilty, a billion dollars in penalties was the best they
could get, so, yeah, sure, I'd be amicable if I got a billion from Apple.

Yet all you've shown is $127 million.

 

and Apple admitted no wrongdoing...

 Ah, but Apple did in the French criminal case where part of the agreement
was Apple had to publicly admit they were sorry for a month, Jolly ROger.
 

which
means Apple lost none of them. Also, none of these law suits were for
billions of dollars.

 The total is well over billions of dollars that Apple lost, Jolly Roger.

Yet all you've shown is $127 million.

He just blurts it out and expects gullible morons to swallow it
without question.

 Apple's losses in recent lawsuits is well over billions of dollars.

Yet all you've shown is $127 million.
