Canadian terrorists

They are the people who live at www.mosaid.com. Curiously they have
PR "announcing" and "demonstrating" some natty hardware.
I guess there are tax/employment/younameit advantages to living
north of 49 degrees.

I think you're confusing them with MOSAD (have I got that right?), the Israeli
security agency (like MI6 or the NSA).

Cheers,
Wol

First thing I always think of is MOSSAD

And I suspect the MOSAID? does too.

MOSSAD is the intelligence arm of the Israeli government.

MOSAID is NOT a Canadian company!

Please don't say they are. MOSAID was once a publicly traded
Canadian company that made semiconductors, but it was bought
out by a USA company and is now 100% owned by them.

MOSAID used to make semiconductors, not sure if it still does. However, MOSAID became famous because it started making more money from patents than from semiconductors.

Seeing MOSAID's success, many companies (aka patent trolls) duplicated the "patent licensing" business model. The newer breed of patent trolls does not even pretend to manufacture products.
