If the french service charges a fee, and they say their service is identical to googles...google can sue them for taking or copying their software etc. And reclaiming lost profits by declaring the french earnings fraudulent.
This is yet another corporate scheme to limit free knowledge so they can put a price on it. And then sell your ideas back to you. Sue anyone that allows access to free knowledge, via bullshat they think they can win and often do Only because they lie in court and twist the truth. Just so they can mine info and sell it back to you, even though you provided it for free. And had no intention of selling it. Violateing your rights as well as others to free and un restricted flow of information. Which the originators of the internet and the universities try hardily to keep in effect.
It's like the carbon tax/credits system. It's something available to everyone already, for free... they just tie in some made up numbers so that certain people benefit from it. While the majority are punished for it. This has been done since 1999. Putting a price on knowledge databases, and opening it up for trade on the world markets. Without any money or credit going back to the person who put the info out there. Basically only the sites and server owners who you submitted the info to would profit. Even if it was copyrighted in your name. Once sold, you no longer had access to the info. And could be sued if you continued to talk about or distribute info or create anything from that info.
If anything google's open source community effort to provide a minimal mapping service free is in no way comparable to any paid service, and therefore does not compete or take away from people who desire a better service. The anti-competition laws simply do not apply.
VZ navigator is also included with web access, you pay for the web service. vz navigator is not a separate fee. But verizon is very shady and often adds fees whenever they feel like it.
microsoft is already attacking linux, having lost several attempts to do so legally.
Since i've never heard of a french mapping company, maybe they should start advertising globally. Imagine how much advertising could have been done with the money they spent on suing Google...How do you expect to be competetive if no one knows about you? Use google to advertise, don't sue someone thats gonna be able to help you. Now, If i were google, i'd block you. for extreme trolling xD and never let you use any services provided. On top of sueing you for several things.
Sueing google isn't gonna do anything but make people think your service is crap, and your gonna be gold digging and nickle and dimeing us for your services. Thus people will steer clear of the french mapping services...I bet their stock values drop like crazy as people sell off the stocks they have.
