It proves Microsoft has shady dealings with astroturf organizations, yes. Proves Microsoft hates Google because Google somehow gets around Microsoft's mind-kontrol techniques? No. Microsoft hates Google because Google is a competitor for web-delivered services. Microsoft is having trouble breaking away from the desktop as a software platform. Note that Apple is kicking Microsoft's butt in the portable media player market, and the Xbox is still losing money with every box sold. One doesn't have to come up with wild theories to explain Microsoft's hatred of Google. It only helps to confirm the image of Linux advocates as wild eyed zealots wanting to bring down Microsoft at any cost. Let Microsoft collapse under its own weight.
