Now Google is answering in court It's no secret that Google pays Apple to be the first to keep the search engine active by default in the Safari browser on the iPhone. Payments from Google are increasing every year. And although there is never official data on this matter, now we are talking about 18–20 billion dollars.  [caption id="attachment_65558" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Google pays[/caption] Bernstein analysts, cited by The Register, speak about this amount. And now this deal between the giants is in jeopardy. Let us remind you that Google is now a defendant in court in the case of monopolization of the search engine market. If Google is found guilty, it is also possible that the company will be forced to terminate the deal with Apple.   Google pays Apple $18-20 billion a year, but that deal is in jeopardy. We believe there is a possibility that the federal courts will rule against Google and force it to terminate its search agreement with Apple. We estimate the ISA to be worth $18-20 billion in annual payments from Google to Apple, representing 14-16% of Apple's annual operating profits. In addition, if this is the outcome, Apple will be forced to use some other search engine. Let us remind you that we recently learned that Apple was in negotiations with Microsoft regarding the acquisition of Bing, but the Cupertino team eventually abandoned this idea.

The concept of Bitcoins is an interesting one. On one side it seems futuristic and unrealistic, while on the other hand, for those steeped in the Internet of Things, Bitcoins represent a logical and even intuitive development. It's yet another example of science fiction becoming reality. But, it seems its time has come, after-all what in fact is our currency? It's no longer backed by gold reserves and rather achieves it's value from speculation and other economic factors, most of which exist within the ether of the Internet. Clearly the vast majority of citizens around the world don't have the foggiest idea how the monetary system is organized and what in fact defines value. What we know about the monetary system is that it is in an ever-precarious state with most indications suggesting it's outdated, often corrupt and perpetually losing value. These factors create very compelling reasons for it to be replaced. I'm not speaking about the complex math that goes into Bitcoins but rather the concept of a virtual currency. Will Bitcoins replace the global currencies? It's doubtful, but we can rest confidently that the door has been swung open and a new monetary system(s) will be coming through.
