Apple drops lawsuit against former exec who accused company of spying (www.engadget.com)

Williams disputed Apples claims and accused the company of spying on his text messages.

As reported by Bloomberg, Apple filed a request to dismiss the suit against Williams earlier this week.

Around March 17th, 2023, the company added two lawyers from the legal firm Morrison and Foerster to the team litigating its case against Williams.

Williams spent nearly a decade working for Apple, leading development on some of its most important chips including the A7, the first 64bit processor for mobile devices.

In 2019, Williams left Apple to cofound Nuvia, a chip design firm later acquired by Qualcomm in 2021.
