<nettime> The pot calling the kettle black?


Microsoft has announced that it is going to formally file an anti-trust complaint against Google in the EU, arguing that " Google is engaging in anticompetitive behavior in search, online advertising, and smartphone software".

I thought this would be an interesting read for many on the list. http://news.cnet.com/8301-10805_3-20049062-75.html?tag=nl.e498

Also, do look at Brad Smith's blog on MS explaining the rationale in great detail http://blogs.technet.com/b/microsoft_on_the_issues/archive/2011/03/30/adding-our-voice-to-concerns-about-search-in-europe.aspx

Cheers
