Unfortunately a Google search for "IOT Security"or "IOT sensor technology management" produce nothing mentioning eDigiital for an unknown number of pages (I did not go deeper than 10 pages. Yet, there are prime positioned ads by bigger names that show up first. Wonder how much that placement cost them... 

 

Just to clarify and I originally misunderstood this concept.  There is no reason for the name Edigital to show up anywhere in relation to Google products.  After we sued Google, Nest, and DropCam, they asked for an Inter Parte Review of our patents to (once again) determine their legitamacy and patentability as a negotiating posture and delay tactic.  While the IPR was moving toward a hearing, Edig and Google signed a settlement and licensing agreement.  This statement was on the information site for the IPR which said that the IPR was being cancelled because of the settlement.  That comment was up on the site for a short time and taken down.  Edig never announced the settlement and licensing agreement to the public by way of a press release.  Were it not for some sharp people on this board, we would not know that it actually happened.  Certainly the world outside this board does not know.  Why it was handled this way?  IMO, NDA's are a lame excuse, unless, of course WE insisted on the NDA.  Why would Edig do this?  IF the settlement was embarassingly small, they would not want future infringers to know the terms.  Not saying that it was, we do not know.  Edig has not publically declared any income from the settlement and licensing agreement as of this date.
