Chrome was originally based on the same code base as Safari ... Google was a main contributor until Android became more of a reality.
I don't understand this lawsuit ...
Provide us with XYZ functionality ... Sue Detroit because they don't provide XYZ actual mileage and block infortainment advances ...
We have to spend money to put our code into their store ... I have to pay more for gas because XYZ car gets shit mileage ...
Nobody is forcing this company to submit their applications to Apple store.
Can somebody tell me who is forcing this company to interact with Apple?
