Forget about the Apple litigation.
If Apple bought 10 million shares of VirnetX at 20 dollars per share it would be a 200 million dollar investment that they would make 800 million dollars on overnight. These tech giants have a vested interest in owning a piece of Gabriel considering the release 10 compatibility Gabriel brings to the table. Could VirnetX not allow Gabriel for IOS compatible with FirstNET? They could if Apple does not settle before the damages trial. Which in itself is a PR horror show for Apple if they let the trial ever happen.
