Schmidt answers Google antitrust claims

"Get int he way of business?"

Um...we're talking about an American company here. Isn't it functionally heresy in that country to allow /anything/ to get in the way of business? Privacy, ethics, human rights, you name it? Pretty much to the point that they burn you as a witch for mentioning it? If some country has inconvenient laws…move your operations to one which is more pliant. If your customers start to grow the faintest glimmerings of a conscience then unleash the marketing department and get out the giant hammer of “patriotism” “fear” “terrorists” or whatever else is required to deflect attention.

Why do you think the world has to keep relying on the EU to enforce common decency on American corporations? As a country they just don’t seem to have the same values as the rest of the world.

P.S. For the record, the comment loses ALL POINT if you don't actually tick the "post anonymously box." XD Hurrah!
