Memo to Google: it's pretty clear- you're running a competing smartphone platform which you're funding through advertising.
Apple sees it as a conflict of interest for you to be related to the monetization for Apple's developers.
...
Indeed. But money is money...
Nice of Apple to officially forbid a competitor to pay them to advertise. ;)
...
Oh don't worry, Apple is already under investigation by the government.
Hi MissChris 🙂
...
Hi there!!! I have lots of catching up to do, it's been a busy couple of days on PS.
...
You don't visit when your off from work, huh?
...
Sometimes I do, but not when it's "rah rah apple day"...
...
I concur! But as I said in the email I sent you right after you left work Monday, the boredom has overcome me!
...
Understandable.
I hear there's not much to do in Vegas. ;)
...
Honestly, Google's been pretty two faced with their relationship with Apple, calling them a 'partner' to their face but a 'competitor' behind closed doors.
Apple has caught on. Despite Google's "feel good vibe," Apple doesn't trust them. They're smart for cutting the cord on Google's advertising monopoly- advertising is a major factor in Apple's platform strength, and they don't want it in the hands of a competitor.
...
Competitor behind closed doors? Uh, did you not see the ginormous Droid does campaign? Yeah, that wasnt aimed directly at apples iphone
...
Maybe you remember back in 2007 and 2008 Google CEO Eric Schmidt's take on the iPhone/Google relationship in relation to those Droid ads.
They're claiming the same thing here.
...
Did you read the whole article. The ads were a way for developers to make money, and gather data for later developments. Before you speak, think first instead of popping off the mouth and looking like a jackckck a2222.
...
Can you type a coherent sentence?
...
Tee hee! I think not.
Last time I checked, advertising costs money. Gotta spend it to make it...
...
Apple's still allowing 3rd party advertisers. Just not ones owned by their competitors. 🙄
So in other words, you're wrong. 😕
...
... for now! Because with iAd, ALL advertising companies are 'competitors' ... give it time, it IS apple afterall
