Back in the days of computer bulletin boards, there was an understanding among most BBS sysops that operating an online service established a social contract between you and your membership. And this contract said that just because you owned "the bat, the ball, and the field" didn't automatically give you the right to make up all the rules.
That was the theory anyway.
Apparently that's a theory some of today's big online players don't subscribe to. But in Google's case, they might be in for a lesson. Because concerns about some of Google's recent policy changes - and their snarky suggestion those who don't like it should go elsewhere has provoked some attention on the State level.
