DOJ expands Google-Yahoo investigation
WinInfo | at | by Mike
The US Department of Justice (DOJ) issued civil subpoenas this week in its investigation of the Google-Yahoo search outsourcing deal, which many feel is anti-competitive and would give market leader Google too much control over the industry. Subpoenas have been sent to both Google and Yahoo, of course, but also to competitors like Microsoft. I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that this was the first time DOJ subpoenas were met, literally, by cheers at Microsoft.
