Google Rejects Criticism of Its $750M AdMob Deal

Let’s be honest for a second, you and I both know that Google could own every search related product / business on the planet and they would still "reject criticism" of any new deal like this. Raise your hand if you expected anything different.

Besides, antitrust grounds, the AdMob deal also raises privacy concerns since both firms gather large amounts of consumer online data, the consumer groups said. AdMob collects information on users' ethnicity, age, gender, education and behavior. Google provides analytical services for mobile advertising through its $3.8 billion DoubleClick acquisition.
