Anybody here know if Apple + Intel own a patent on the LightPeak connectors? Like, maybe, they want everybody to use LightPeak, but more importantly, pay Apple

Anybody here know if Apple + Intel own a patent on the LightPeak connectors? Like, maybe, they want everybody to use LightPeak, but more importantly, pay Apple and Intel for LightPeak licensing?
