Ngesonto eledlule, uMnyango Wezobulungiswa wase-United States ufake isimangalo ngokumelene neGoogle, esola ukuthi i-giant search isebenzisa izindlela zokulwa nokuncintisana nokukhishwa ezimakethe zokusesha nezokukhangisa ukugcina ukuzimela okungekho emthethweni.
Ngokwe-New York Times, uMnyango Wezobulungiswa wase-United States ihlose isivumelwano esinenzuzo phakathi kwe-Apple neGoogle njengengxenye yamacala amakhulu kunawo wonke ezweni (isivumelwano esingathinti i-United States kuphela kodwa nomhlaba wonke kwazise iGoogle iyinjini yokusesha ezenzakalelayo kuwo wonke amadivayisi aphethwe yi-iOS).
Ngokwalo mkhwa, i-Apple ivuselele ngo-2017 isivumelwano phakathi kwalezi zinkampani zombili sokunikeza nge injini ezenzakalelayo ye-Google ku-iOS (hhayi eSafari kuphela), futhi uma ngithi okuzenzakalelayo, kungenxa yokuthi sinezinye izinjini esizisebenzisayo ngaphakathi kwezinketho zeSafari.
Ngenxa yalesi sivumelwano, i-Apple ithola unyaka nonyaka phakathi kuka-8.000 no-12.000 million dollars njalo ngonyaka. Kulinganiselwa ukuthi le mali engenayo ingakhiqiza phakathi kuka-14 no-21% wayo yonke imali engenayo ye-Apple. Abashushisi abathatha leli cala bathi lesi sivumelwano simelela amaqhinga angekho emthethweni asetshenziswa ukuvikela ubukhosi beGoogle.
Ngokusho koMnyango Wezobulungiswa, cishe isigamu sethrafikhi yosesho lweGoogle sivela kumadivayisi we-Apple. Ukulahlekelwa lelo dili kungaba yingozi enkulu kuGoogle, ngoba ithrafikhi yokusesha ingenye yezingxenye ezibaluleke kakhulu zebhizinisi lakho lapho kuhlanganiswa uhlelo lwesikhangiso.
Yize lesi sidingo singasho ukwehla okukhulu emholweni wenkampani, ubungozi bukhulu kuGoogle, ngubani Kuzofanele ngandlela thile ngithathe indawo yawo wonke umgwaqo engizowulahla, ngoba izoyeka ukuphatha ukusesha okuphelele ngokuphelele (kuzoqhubeka nokugcina ukusesha okuvela kuGoogle, noma kungenjalo isikhathi eside).
I-New York Times ithi I-Apple ingazakhela eyayo injini yokusesha uma ekugcineni ephoqeleka ukuthi aphule isivumelwano noma athenge esivele ikhona, okuyinto engeke yenzeke kusukela ukungena kwe-Apple ezikhangisweni kwavalwa eminyakeni embalwa eyedlule njengoba kungaphumelelanga njengoba inkampani yayilindele. Ngaphezu kwalokho, kungasho ukulandelela konke okwenziwa abasebenzisi bayo ukuze bakwazi ukukhomba izikhangiso, ukulandelela okukhombise ukuthi kuyaphikisana, iSafari iyisibonelo esicacile.
