Google is happy to be open with the contents of the entire Web I'm not sure what you mean. Google is gradually opening its technology - you see one announcement after another these days. And here lies the difference between Google and Apple: both benefited from the open-source world big time, except the former contributes back as an acknowledgement, and the latter contributes nothing.

What about WebKit and Darwin, to name a few?
- mojuba 18y ago
  Both are derived from non-Apple open-source projects and thus must be open.

    Darwin at least has roots in BSD which does not obligate the user to open derived works.

      That's the kernel... Darwin's userland is GNU.
