&lt;p&gt;Google got the lion&amp;#39;s share by virtue of being the best not because of intentional business practices aimed at eliminating competition. &amp;nbsp;Every time a company enjoys such success we let our government take it away and monitor what&amp;#39;s left. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Being Google I would separate the various branches now and let their famous search engine put it all back together becuase it will. &amp;nbsp;Their results have nothing to do with advertising except where paid advertisers will hit the top of the list. &amp;nbsp;So small business don&amp;#39;t hit the top of the list. &amp;nbsp;What about the superbowl commercials? &amp;nbsp;same thing. Let&amp;#39;s have anti-trust suits agains the NFL, NBA, ABA and NHL. &amp;nbsp;They determine who sponsors and oddly enough it&amp;#39;s usually based upon money not anything else. &amp;nbsp;If you think that&amp;#39;s wrong go ahead and flame me because I&amp;#39;m tired of Microsoft who owns Windows and more than 67% of the PC Operating SYstem Market. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Who needs a decision engine? &amp;nbsp;I make my own. &amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Google.com is google&amp;#39;s property and not Microsoft&amp;#39;s or the government&amp;#39;s. As such, Google as the inalienable right to set the terms of their contracts as they see fit -- and if you don;t like their proposal then no on is forcing you to sign it. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Google is doing now in the &amp;quot;search engine wars&amp;quot; what Microsoft did during the &amp;quot;browser wars&amp;quot; with Internet Explorer a decade ago. And to think I defended Microsoft&amp;#39;s right to its property.&lt;/p&gt;
