Another desperate attempt by Microsoft?
September 28th, 2007
This is crazy! Microsoft is complaining! Reminds me of school days:
Microsoft is “warning“ the senator that Google will hurt customer privacy and monopolize the ad media market with higher prices for advertisers (They are saying: “This way we might be able to hurt Google politically if not technologically since we can surely rival their over-80% market share in a jiffy with not-so-competitive technology”)
This strong attack by Microsoft on the search engine company comes after its $3.1 billion purchase of DoubleClick.
Flashback: Microsoft had also bid for the same company and they couldn’t beat Google at it.
Latest News:
Google’s potential acquisition of DoubleClick is now under scrutiny by a U.S. Senate Judiciary Subcommittee, and based on yesterday’s hearing, the closing of this deal could still be a long way off.
