  • Dissecting
    Microsoft Slams At Google As Copyright Infringer

    Last October, Microsoft’s Steve Ballmer gave us a taste of how Microsoft was
    going to position Google as a copyright leech. Today, Microsoft launched a
    full-out assault on the company. Google deserves some of this, no doubt. But
