Apple Looks to Burn Google with 3rd Party In-App Purchase Patent

"That's where this could, if granted, come crashing down on
Google. Under Apple's definition, if Google served an ad that
provided a way of buying a product, Google owns the ad and the
advertiser or someone else owns the product. So, if the patent
was granted, Google would have to get permission from Apple to do
this."
