Europeans are relentlessly attacking Google: A German official called for its breakup, a French minister charged it was a threat to sovereignty, and a publisher compared it to a dragon, according to a report. Really? I would have thought the euro and the draconian austerity program needed to keep it functioning threatened sovereignty more than Google. What’s troubling is that Google and the European regulators reached a deal on Google’s alleged antitrust activities related to search back in February of this year. When is a deal not a deal?
