The Finnish Nokia is suing Amazon and HP over the unauthorized use of a mix of video streaming-related essential patents. Nokia filed a lawsuit in a Delaware federal court and similar lawsuits across Germany, India, the UK, and the European Unified Patent Court.

The lawsuits, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, allege that Amazon’s Prime Video and Twitch streaming services, as well as its Fire TV devices, infringe Nokia’s patents related to video streaming technology. Nokia is seeking injunctions to stop the alleged infringement, as well as damages.

Nokia claims that Amazon has refused to license its patents despite being offered fair terms. The company says that it has invested heavily in video streaming technology and that the alleged infringement is harming its business.

In a statement, Nokia said: “We are taking this action to protect our intellectual property and to ensure that our investments in research and development are rewarded. We believe that Amazon’s use of our patented inventions is unlawful, and we are committed to defending our rights.”

Amazon has not yet commented on the lawsuits.
