Google reportedly building a secret wireless network

Not if they launch their own network. It's like the Microsoft Surface. "Let me license software for you to develop your hardware around my operating system and watch me compete against you with my own hardware."

Firstly GG does not license anything to any1 concerning wireless networks.

Secondly GG are always unhappy with network carriers for making access to the internet expensive and difficult.

GG is trying to disrupt the wireless industry and this will bring great value to users.

Don't forget Google is tired of carriers delaying updates as well.

Google licenses Google apps for Android. They may be free, but manufacturers still have to follow certain rules to get them.

Google license the apps to phone makers, not carriers.

In fact GG's network will help phone makers as they have more choice.

And they should write/enforce a rule that a manufacturers have 45 days to update their devices (that can be) to the latest os or lose their free license.

A better question is: when has Google proven itself to be irresponsible?

To willingly go along with illegal employment practices. A small unrelated blemish doesn't mean that's the only thing they are willing to do.

If they come out with a phone called the Terminator I want nothing to do with it even if it is the greatest thing to come along since sliced bread "I'll be back"
