The company "Google" the largest search engine in the world concern about the vulnerability of the free flow of information on the Internet in the event of the success of the "Microsoft" the acquisition of the company, "Yahoo" of America.
Said Eric Schmidt, chief executive of Google, told reporters they were concerned about any kind of acquisition by the Corporation, "Microsoft" company, "Yahoo," the owner of the second-largest search engine on the Internet.
Media reports said a few days ago that the senior officials of the "Microsoft" and the "Yahoo" for the first time they met to discuss the takeover offer by "Microsoft" company, "Yahoo."
The newspaper "The Wall Street Journal" The meeting took place near the headquarters of "Yahoo", California, America and the first direct talks between the two companies since the submission of "Microsoft" offer for the purchase of "Yahoo" on 31 January last, which was rejected by the recent values of 41.7 billion dollars.
The newspaper reported the "San Jose Mercury News that" Yahoo decided to reject the purchase offer made by Microsoft during a special meeting of the Board of Directors held last January.
In the case of the completion of the transaction will be the integration of Microsoft and Yahoo's biggest merger ever between two companies that operated in the computer technology.
In a series of meetings held over last January, the board of directors of Yahoo to examine alternatives that may be available to accept the offer of the company other than Microsoft, and Microsoft, when the offer was announced last week the first time, a premium of more than 62 percent from the level of Yahoo shares.
I thought in the Yahoo alliance with an alternative search engine giant Google over the Internet to maintain their independence and, in the case going ahead in the presentation, Microsoft is expected to seek a higher price than the current price to be paid part cash and part in the form of shares.
After the announcement of Microsoft's desire to join the Yahoo fierce war which they started with the Google, which plans to have played a destructive role in the process has taken a stand against the deal, saying in a statement that the offer hostile by Microsoft could be a risk to competition.

Have also begun lobbying by Google, in Washington, planning for how to raise a case against the procurement process to the legislators, and Google can benefit through the prolonging of judicial review until after the next president takes office, and a number of Google's managers were contacted over the weekend, with allies companies such as Time Warner, to see whether they intend to follow up on a rival offer and how they can help.
David Dermond said Google Vice President and responsible for legal issues: "Could Microsoft now attempt to exert the same behavior and correct the illegal influence on the Internet as it has done with the PC?".
Has raised the offer by Microsoft to buy Yahoo's search engine of many of the contradictory reactions, while, in which the team of experts that this is a victory for the first and serve the users, the other team went to the holding of this deal will put Microsoft back on the road, which is still the company's monopoly to suffer now.
And executives in companies less optimistic about the competitive strategy of the division of Yahoo, said a director at a major media company that no one can get an average price of 44 billion dollars, even if it was divided into ten sections.
