    Current Broadcom IOT wifi didn't even manage to snag RPi as a customer. Makes sense why they'd sell it off.

    I assume that was by design given that socket went to Cypress which, as the article mentions, purchased Broadcom's IoT business in 2016. The big question in my mind here is what IoT IP/tech is Synaptics getting that was left out of the original Cypress deal.

    I mean yea but you'd think Broadcom could poach their own customer -- they know exactly what they want/need.

    Cypress probably didn't get exclusive licenses to IP and Broadcom obviously has a strong base to start any form of wired or wireless tech division. They probably just built it up again from their higher-powered tech.

    With Ripple20 being the latest in a long line of IOT security problems, I would not be surprised of Synaptics acquired the business for a good price. IOT isn't going anywhere, but I would encourage people to think twice about the necessity of buying devices that are internet-enabled in order to save themselves from performing trivial tasks like standing up to flip a nearby switch manually as getting off our backsides is something a lot of us need to do more often anyway to avoid higher mortality rates due to a lack of physical activity.

    The spot was incredibly stuffed. https://www.listmybusinesses.com/ There was a prerequisite for some plan or a storage facility that will help people with tracking down their fundamental locales. That is the manner in which expert references were considered. A segment of the standard by and large expert references are Google my business, Yelp, Yellow Pages, etc
