Apple Buys Samsung’s Android Security Partner AuthenTec For $365M
- mtgx 14y agoI wonder if they intend to sue Samsung now for using their "security technology". I've learned not to put anything past Apple lately.
- jsz0 14y agoI would guess Samsung has already paid license fees or come to some other arrangement. Otherwise they would probably have already been sued by AuthenTec over it.
- programminggeek 14y agoGiven that Apple tends to buy companies for projects they are working on or technology that they need, it's worth taking note that Apple has stockpiled so much cash that they can spend $365 million on what might just amount to a upcoming feature in iOS or some upcoming iPhone/iPad/Macbook Air device. That is the power of cash.
