FTC Asked To Block Google-DoubleClick Merger

[HardOCP News]

The Electronic Privacy Information Center, the Center for Digital Democracy and the U.S. Public Interest Research Group have all filed a complaint with the FTC, asking them to block Google’s acquisition of DoubleClick.

The complaint, filed Friday by the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC), the Center for Digital Democracy (CDD), and the U.S. Public Interest Research Group (US PIRG), calls upon the FTC to block the merger unless it obtains guarantees from Google and DoubleClick that they will protect Internet users' privacy.

Good to see somebody with actual "legit" reasons for wanting to hold this merger back some.
