Maybe, but in the meantime I can't imagine a scenario where such a direct financial threat to a business isn't vigorously defended by Symantec. I'm not a lawyer, but certainly they must be working to determine if they have a legal basis for seeking an injunction against Google. They could even be building some sort of legal theory based on tortious business interference, contending that Google is doing irreparable harm by trying to come between Symantec and the expectations of its paying customers.
