Except for the missing “acqui” bit, maybe?

- rickdeckard 3y agoMore like a "hostile acqui-hire" maybe? They attempted to acquire a specific tech of Masimo by hiring the key resources instead of acquiring the company (or parts of it). I'd call it an "attempt" because in the end Apple needed the "acqui-hires" to build something that was left behind in Masimo and was already patented.
- kelipso 3y agoIt's not acqui-hiring without the acquisition. This is just poaching, breaking confidentiality agreements, and patent infringement.
