Even as it
offers Google Chat to its Outlook.com users, Microsoft is warning consumers that
Google's search engine and other services can't be trusted. The company has
spent millions of dollars on a series of critical ads that began appearing
online, in print and on television about six months ago.
Some of Microsoft's
recent advertising attacks have been aimed at Google's Gmail, the foundation for
Google Chat.
So they can spy on you at will but when Google
does it that's because Google can't be trusted.
Double standards,
anyone?

Security risks from using MS products aside, I have long said the various
messaging and video chat services should be able to inter-operate. When we send
email, we don't care what provider the recipient is with, so why should we have
to with texting or video chat?

"Microsoft says this new feature is 'one more reason to make the switch'
from Gmail to Outlook.com"
I read it as one more reason to avoid using Outlook.com.

Oh, here's irony for you, the new Google Hangouts unified messaging service
announced today is dropping XMPP as a protocol and there's a big question mark
on whether they will still allow 3rd-party apps to connect...[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
