FTC has cleared Google - AdMob deal
- mawhidby 16y agoI am curious as to what the FTC would have done with this had Apple not introduced their own ad platform. Do you think this deal would not have been allowed?
- Tycho 16y agoI am by no means an authority on this subject but does the whole concept of a 'monopoly' (or such) on advertising not strike anyone else as as bit... silly? As in, to advertise one only needs some sort of property and then no one could stop you using it to host advertisements. I suppose you could say the same about any industry - if you own property then you can attempt to enter the market. But something strikes me as different about advertising, can't quite put my finger on it.
