Google Pixel users may not be able to set up older Google Home and Nest devices thanks to Sonos

Google and Sonos have been at war with each other for years over copyright and patent infringement. The battle reached its peak in January this year when the US International Trade Commission found Google guilty of violating Sonos' IPs without taking its due permission. This forced the big G to cripple certain features on its Nest and Cast-enabled speakers to comply with the ruling. Now, the company has given another heads-up to Pixel users in the US and Canada that could prevent them from setting up certain Nest or Google Home-branded devices.
