€UROCRATS based in the city with two names called Bruxelles and Brussels are pondering whether the firm's acquisition of online advert distribution firm Double Click is a good or a bad thing.
The commission is widely suspected by the paranoid in the US of copping an attitude towards successful American firms, but will press ahead in its investigation of the company.
According to Dow Jones, the deal could be blocked by the €uropean commissars, who may well believe that Google owning an ad server company which it paid $3 billion for is one step for Goodie Two Shoes too many.
One multinational owning much of internet advertising could be considered anticompetitive by some. The Marxists, in the old days, used to believe if you owned the method of production you were quids in.
It's all a bit like George Orwell's book 1984, isn't it? Eurasia, Oceania and the rest. Sheesh! µ
Lately, I've seen articles on the inq, about the EU... with a taste of EU-skepticism...

That's weird... the anti-EU lobby finally reached the Inq?

Well, if you're going the way where all those anti-EU tabloids are, good luck.
I get spam that's more comprehensible that that post.
Actually in Belgium, the capital has two names: Bruxelles and Brussel (note no 's' on the end)

How the rest of us got the idea of a place call "Brussels" is probably through laziness to confabulate a name from two languages.
Google will be made to pay $$$,just like Microsoft was. EU commission can block ANY business in Europe from going if it wants, and YES you're right it's just like Orwell's... :/
iT IS TRUE uLTIE_toms iNVISIBLE rOOMATE oNCE aTTACKED Root of US civilization: Room 435 Old Senate Office bldg. Its Porn, Dope & USENET.
USENET is google in small Way, its Newsgroup service.It IS, Repeat IS LOCAL DRUG DEALER, PIMP, STOREFRON LAW SCHOOL & MURDERER. Thats Point of Rm 435.
To perpetrate this FRAUD, Local Metro LAW Schools of Storefront Nature from Local Private Universities actively scan geographic area for VICTIMS THRU usenet sERVERS ON pREMISES.

At Times I'm COP & with USenet, i'M ALWAYS POLICE.I had to learn about it as MY delegated Authority Came Back Cripples, theres Mr. T, & many others.HAVE YOUR EYES STAPLED TO YOUR BRAINS BEFORE TESTING ALT.DRUGS.HARD they arn't kidding.

Google Can Be Replace by any other service that does not distribute USENET & by court action, if need be stop google/USENET.

too bad info seems OK inSearch & they where generous with GooglePack, I wish them well with O/s or stronger software of sorts.

Heres PIMP, USENET is nATIVE INDIAN COMMUNITY. MANDAN to be exact & mandanians? from dakota are notorious TORTURE Fanatics. they are also Descendants of Holland & Dakota, Mixed about 1650, in self imposed exile by fundumental Religious Peoples Whom traveled to Mandan by Mississippi Rive & Missouri River.

HERES MY POINT, THAT COURT IS VERY CLOSE TO EXTENSIVE TIES WITH MANDAN PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY IN MEDICAL USES OF NATIVES(EVERYONE).
IT TURNS OUT NOT ALL NATIVES LIKE US, THUS USENET HAS THAT CORE & NOT ALL BELGIUMIERS, THOSE OF LUXENBURG PARTICULARLY & HOLLAND/GERMANY IN ITS ROOT OF DEVELOPEMENT, WISH ANYTHING EXCEPT TO CARRY ON WITH EXPLOITATION.
