Dan Frommer:
All's fair in business, we suppose. But Google is now basically acting like heyday-era Microsoft here, throwing its weight around and screwing over small companies for its own gain. Google Android boss Andy Rubin went as far as to call Motorola co-CEO Sanjay Jha “multiple times” to impose a “stop ship” order on the company's phones, according to Skyhook's complaint.
If Google is the new evil then how do we feel about Microsoft? I feel pity for them. Also this evil Google is only going to get worse I suspect – for the greed has taken over.
