Resumen: La misma agencia de relaciones públicas trabaja con Microsoft para atacar a Google acaba de ser pagados por Facebook, para el mismo fin: atacar a Google, también.

Facebook ha hecho mucho para ayudar a Microsoft, incluyendo la promoción de Silver Lie, OOXML, B0ng, e incluso pasar todos los datos de sus usuarios a Microsoft para la explotación minera así como la intrusión de privacidad es obvia. Hay mucho más de eso, pero lo hemos cubierto antes. Añadir otra medalla de la lealtad al chaleco de Mark "tonto m*mones[http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/05/14/facebook_trust_dumb/]" Zuckerberg.



Microsoft acaba de tener que pagar cientos de millones de Facebook (como en el caso de Novell) y la recompensa es buena porque los ataques contra Google están siendo financiados por Facebook[http://everythingnew.net/technology/facebook-admits-hiring-pr-firm-to-smear-google/] [a través de[http://news.slashdot.org/story/11/05/12/138229/Facebook-Admits-Hiring-PR-Firm-To-Smear-Google], HT "walterbyrd"]

Gente, Facebook y Google, el choque de los Gigantes de Internet alcanzaró nuevas alturas después de un portavoz de Facebook confirmó a Daily Beast que Facebook pagó una empresa de alto nivel de relaciónes públicas para publicar y difundir historias en contra de Google a través de los medios de comunicación para estudiar diversos métodos para examinar las alegaciones de que Google ha estado violando la privacidad del usuario. La firma de relaciones públicas Burson-Marsteller, ofrecieron su ayuda a Chris Soghoian para escribir un artículo sobre los círculos sociales que muestra cómo los usuarios de Gmail pueden acceder a la información sobre "Conexiones secundarias" o amigos en su círculo de amigos. Esta muy "Círculo Social" parecía ser la esencia misma de la campaña contra Google por Facebook. El portavoz de relaciones públicas de la empresa, dijo el periodista de noticias en términos de blanco y negro.


Se escribió acerca de esta empresa a principios de semana [1[http://techrights.org/2011/05/11/jim-goldman-propaganda/], 2[http://techrights.org/2011/05/10/sock-puppets-of-microsoft/]], pero es más interesante que eso. En 2007, "Microsoft y la agencia de relaciones públicas Burson-Marsteller formaron ICOMP para luchar contra la adquisición de Google de DoubleClick," como se citó el año pasado[http://techrights.org/2010/12/14/frivolous-legal-action-and-ita-2/]. También menciona a este perro de ataque en un artículo sobre Richard Edelman[http://techrights.org/2010/12/10/edelman-deceives-the-public/] el super-delincuente. Antes de esto que hemos mencionado de Burson-Marsteller en el contexto de Visible Technologies[http://techrights.org/2009/08/19/visible-technologies-funded-by-ignition/], una empresa fundada por ex empleados de Microsoft[http://techrights.org/wiki/index.php/Visible_Technologies] para participar en astroturfing a través de blogs (Microsoft es el cliente principal, obviamente). Se trata de algunas cosas desagradables, repugnantes. Microsoft, los hooligans en trajes son tan responsables como la propia Microsoft. €¿Dónde está la responsabilidad? €¿Dónde están los reguladores antimonopolios[http://techrights.org/2011/05/13/attacking-the-little-guy_es/]?
