What did Google really expect to happen?
If Google wanted real "open access", then they should have bid on the spectrum "TO WIN" and put their money where their big fat mouth was. But they wanted the gravy without paying for the meat. Now they are just whining to daddy(FCC) to bail them out.

Re: oh really...


Exactly! Don't game the auction, if you don't want the winners to game the open access provisions. Didn't put up ..... Shut up.

I usually don't post "ditto" posts, but I'm going to this time Google seems to have stumbled, somehow believing their "we're Google" invincibility would magically make this all work. Wireless is a real brick-and-mortar world; you can't build a network like you build and release a new feature with an army of young programmers and Linux boxes...
