There's another massive take-over in technology land. It appears ARM has been purchased by softbank. UK technology firm ARM Holdings is to be bought by Japan's Softbank for $32bn it confirmed on Monday.

About half the ARM employees are outside the UK, some in countries that never were in the EU to begin with. For instance the ARM graphics started out as Phalanx and much of that remains in Norway.

Brexit is overrated

Hey, they can handle it. They'll just sprinkle Trustzone everywhere, and things will be fine!

Fuckin sucks. British success story being taken away from us, AGAIN

Look at all the iconic British brands / companies that have been taken over by foreigners - Mini, Bentley, Rolls Royce, Jaguar-Land Rover, McLaren. Every single one is owned or majority-owned by foreigners.

Yes they are all car companies but our tech sector has clearly suffered a similar fate. There used to be Acorn computers, ARM of course, Amstrad, Sinclair - all big companies in the computer industry, and now the last big success story - ARM - is being bought by foreigners.

FOR FUCK'S SAKE. America and Germany wouldn't put up with this shit, why the fuck are we putting up with it?

The problem isn't that Softbank wants to buy.
The problem is the fact that present ARM owners do not want to keep on owning ARM.
SB at least states what their plans for the future is, that is more than the present owners ever have said.

This is like the 90's again. Japan is getting up from the stagflation as the West is sinking into it.
