Of Internet, Google, Microsoft, Yahoo, markets, monopolies and competition

google-microsoft-yahoo In economy we like to see the markets like enormous sands in which they free battle hundreds of thousand million offerers to place its products to hundreds of thousands of million plaintiffs, where no of the parts has the power sufficient to become of the control of the prices and the compromised amounts, but these pay attention by the free game of those opposed forces that guard by their own interest. That finishes reading erases it of their head completely, because it is not nothing else that an illusion that moves away to years light of the reality. First of all, in no place of the world and no market in particular, the offerers altogether have

equal weight that the plaintiffs. Secondly, still within each of those groups agents with more power exist than others, with more size or with a better positioning than she allows them to pisotear the interests of others to realise theirs own ones. I do not believe that there is a market that allows to illustrate better east point than the one of computer science, more indeed the one of the searches in Internet and the publicity. A market that moves hundreds of thousands of million dollars and whose nuclea power around a few companies that bet to the monopoly: to being the unique ones with being able of decision. It is so, when the giant of software (of monopolistic tendencies, it is possible to emphasize) showed its intention to acquire to second in the list of the main finders and advertising platforms in Internet, first in that list put hands to the work to try to disarticulate that business. Yes, I am speaking of the intention that expressed Microsoft Friday on the matter to acquire to Yahoo! and the reactions of Google. What they will listen that way in the sayings of both part is that they are guarding to maintain the principles of cooperation and the freedom of Internet that are undermined by the monopolistic tendencies of their opponent. It is necessary to know well clearly a thing: The businesses in Internet are much more that one bids up economic and a financial transaction, because they put into play an unimaginable power that is the one that would suppose the dominion of the Web, the microcosm without limits nor horizon, on the part of a unique company or individual.
