Since October, Google’s GKBO appears to have been systematically accessing Mocality’s database and attempting to sell their competing product to our business owners. They have been telling untruths about their relationship with us, and about our business practices, in order to do so. As of January 11th, nearly 30% of our database has apparently been contacted.

Google are having a rough time keeping to their Don’t Be Evil motto:

• paying bloggers to post a Chrome advert (resulting in Google punishing Google by reducing Google Chrome’s ranking in search results)
• blatantly favouring Google+ in its new social search results, and causing a shit storm in the process
• and now this.

It’s a long read, but I found it interesting. The sort of sting they performed on Google is the type I’d expect Google to do to others.
