Adobe wants to sell you Creative Suite for $2,500 and needs to keep
the Flash platform relevant, so they cry "Developer freedom!  Apple
tyranny!" instead.  Google is the world's biggest advertisement agency
(about 97% of their revenue) and successfully distracted their only
serious search competitor (Microsoft) with Android; getting more
Internet usage with more ad clicking was just a bonus IMHO.
