Google CEO supports Yahoo's quest for independence
“Yahoo’s independence is important for competition in the Internet search and online advertising markets,” said Eric Schmidt, CEO of Google, in an interview.
Judging by his words, Google will probably help Yahoo avoid Microsoft takeover.
Eric Schmidt:
“We fully support the decision of Yahoo executives to abandon the deal with Microsoft. For us there is no doubt that the independence of this company is useful for the Internet market "
...
" "In the history of Microsoft, there were already deals that first looked promising, and then had a negative effect on the development of the entire market"
