- kenjackson 15y agoYes, but look at why Skyhook is suing them. We live in a weird bubble where if a company gets sued then they are the victim. No one even fathoms, when it comes to Google at least, that maybe they did something to deserve being sued.
- nknight 15y agoHe didn't say "Google is being mean", he said they and Apple were "suing everybody", a statement in no way supported by one of his references.
- Ecio78 15y agosorry for my bad english, it led you to misinterpretations: I was citing situations in which other big names (not microsoft) were a bit "evil", google too (because the op was picturing a scenary in which Microsoft is all-bad with its FUD and google/android is just a victim) I should have written "what about Google, intimidating its own partners in order to shut down competitors like skyhook, or Apple, suing dozens of society, from competitors to restaurants"
- shinratdr 15y agoThey were being sued by Skyhook because they were using Android compatibility tests "as a club to get OEMs to do what [they] want" (their words). In this case, they were using it to push out Skyhook in favour of Google Location Services.
