Half-hearted? people seem to forget about their bid for spectrum 3 years ago, also you don't know what happens behind closed doors, the telecos lobbing budget is many times that of Google.
- nanairo 16y agoBut I am entitled to feel betrayed by someone who first pretends to be so much more ethical than the rest and then isn't. All people are asking (and I agree) is that Google should have been more honest. 3-years ago was a whole different situation. THAT's the whole point people are talking about. When people argue of an old Google and a new Google, taking an example from 3 years ago to as a point in favour of the new Google is a bit deceptive. I agree btw, that the bid for spectrum was a good move. But then if you believe that and therefore you believe in net neutrality for wireless, how can you justify Google's current behaviour if not as giving in?

The four openness conditions of this were: open applications, open devices, open services, and open networks. http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/2007/07/our-commitment-to-open-broadband.html http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/2007/07/our-commitmen...
