David against Goliath or what is the same: Sonos against Google

Sonos speaker

Important news in the world of technology and patents is that Sonos has just released a complaint against Google for a patent issueYes, it seems that the little ones have it complicated with these issues but with everything well tied, it is not so difficult to "bend" one of the big ones and that is precisely what Sonos wants to do with Google.

It seems that prior to the lawsuit they have brought to justice for shamelessly copy their technologyThey tried to dialogue with the company of the big G, but nothing and nobody paid attention to them, so they have seen fit to take them to court for it. Google is not the only one that is involved in this type of copies of Sonos' patented technology, but it is the first company to sue from the well-known speaker firm.

Own Patrick Spence, CEO of Sonos, explained in the New York Times that they have tried on numerous occasions to dialogue on this issue with Google itself, but they have always taken "a slam" and for that reason they have no choice but to sue. It seems that the multi-room technology used today by devices such as Google Play speakers or Amazon Echo is the cause of this demand.

Messing with a big one is more than complicated, for that reason Spence himself confirms that they do not have enough financial means to mess with both companies so they have chosen to start the legal fight with Google (Amazon also has its speakers for sale) so what the task is not easy but not impossible. It will be time to closely follow this issue but Google spokesman José Castaneda has already denied to the media Sonos' claims about the misuse of patents, which are approximately 100.
