And what would they do if that auction was taking place today? Google only supported net neutrality when they were an outsider with nothing to lose and everything to gain. Now they're part of the club and, conveniently, compromise is the virtue of the day.
- chengas123 16y agoI don't understand why people equate Google winning or losing with its net neutrality stance. Google has been hugely successful on the net. Surely it would be in their interest to not have net neutrality and to have their traffic favored over competitors, but they're not advocating that. I really don't follow your argument.
- gamble 16y agoWhen a supposedly whole-hearted net neutrality supporter flips overnight to a watered-down proposal with the fastest-growing market excluded from consideration, you have to question whether they have any credibility at all. Particularly when their partner in crime is the number one enemy of net neutrality and someone Google is almost entirely dependent on for Android's success.
