Archit Tantia

I had posted my views on the Microhoo! deal a few days ago. Now finally the long awaited comment from Google has arrived at their official blog. The post has been done by David Drummond, Senior Vice President, Corporate Development and Chief Legal Officer at Google and is somewhat a bit rude relating to Google’s posting habits.

I think this is the first time Google has openly questioned one of its rivals like this and this attitude doesn’t rightly portray its “Don’t be Evil” motto.

Whatever the attitude of the post, I think he gave a very powerful view about Microsoft’s doing;

Could Microsoft now attempt to exert the same sort of inappropriate and illegal influence over the Internet that it did with the PC? While the Internet rewards competitive innovation, Microsoft has frequently sought to establish proprietary monopolies — and then leverage its dominance into new, adjacent markets.

So what’s your view on the official Google post about the hot in the market deal?
