The FTC is doing the investigation.

Sounds like the FTC is concerned that there may be some kind of wardrobe malfunctions in the board room.
Good, they can also ask about Google's "gentleman's agreement" not to use multi-touch in Android. To me, this seems like an agreement that is anti-competition. As for the "iPhone patent" in regards to multi-touch, it's either you have a patent or you don't. But, having to ask a competitor not to implemenent a competitive feature seems kind of fishy.
And you have any proof any of this happened?
This a great investigation. For as justifiably vilified as Microsoft is on the Apple Fan-boy boards, Google is the new and future Evil Empire. Its plan to control or significantly influence your lives is as scary as Microsoft has ever been. Heck, Microsoft's reach is only 90% of the market and shrinking, whereas Google is virtually at 100% and will continue to expand into new areas as time goes on.
Google is like the 'Chrystal Meth' of the internet. And when we are all hooked, then what? Do you really trust a large, multinational corporation with massive profits? Once you've gone to Google Docs, and you do Google searches, they now have a level of understanding of your life that Micosoft NEVER had.
You didn't trust Microsoft and you shouldn't trust Google.
Maybe a lil' "conspiracy theory" is involved here, but a valid point nonetheless...![]()

Ahh, give me another glass of that delicious Google Koolaide.
Anybody that drives business to my website can't be all bad.![]()
The US Government has already asked Google to assist with spying on Americans in conjunction with the Patriot Act...and they said 'No'....this time. At least, they said ...'they said 'No" '. Microsoft scared me because they controlled my work environment but Google has much, much more capabilities. And in an recent Frontline program on the NSA, it was revealed that the NSA is monitoring much of our telephony in conjunction with ATT. I would love to know if the NSA has a 'special room' at Google's headquarters like they do at the ATT facility in San Francisco.
Here is an excerpt from the Frontline episode:

Once you've gone to gmail, Google Docs, and you do Google searches, they then have the capability to have a level of understanding of your life that Microsoft NEVER had. And that doesn't bother any of you? Really?
You didn't trust Microsoft and you shouldn't trust Google.
Youtube sharing built into iMovie, Google Search built into Safari, Google Maps built into iPhoto/iPhone...? "Highly integrated" was a bit hyperbolic, but still, it's there.
