> Maybe I need to stop being disappointed in Google and just start expecting them to lie, mislead, and refuse direct questions Why exactly is it in Google's best interests to reveal internal competitive trade secrets just because someone asked? Or any company, for that matter. If a company discloses information it's because they think they'll gain more from disclosing it than from not disclosing it. So why should you demand that all companies answer all your questions? I'd be interested in examples of lies, though.
