  It's the endgame. There's less and less breathable room between the biggest players. That oversized market share turns into profits which turn into power: political and psychological. Most people won't have heard of these incidents. Of those, most won't even remember them next week. Soon, those who would dissent will pick their livelihood over speaking up for their principles. And I can't blame them.

  So you'll believe any story that critiques Google now? I would take this article with a grain of salt. Vivaldi's version of events is one side of the story. We don't know how Google would respond.
