Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
The complaint further suggests that a senior executive in
the Google Apps partner program at the time, Scott McMullan, told
LimitNone that the application had the potential to accrue 50 million
users and this was something that was "just too big to come from
someone else.”
Ray Glassman, CEO of LimitNone, says that far
from not being evil Google "invited us to work with them, to trust them
– and then stole our technology.”
The lawyers representing LimitNone, David Rammelt and Susan Greenspon
of the Chicago office of Kelley Drye & Warren LLP, told
Businesswire that "It's shocking that Google would engage in this type of conduct;
particularly when the other party is a small software company that
built its business specifically to help Google sell its existing and
future products. People need to realize that Google is just another
large publicly traded corporation that will do whatever it takes to
increase its revenue, even if that means risking its reputation among
developers.”
The payoff for the lawsuit is a compensation claim for some US $950 million (AUD $991 million) to cover the lost revenue.
