Microsoft and Google aren't fighting anymore, agree to stop complaining to regulators - CNET

Remember when pretty much every major tech company started suing each other over their smartphone, software, and wireless intellectual property? Microsoft and Google are calling that fight quits. Last September, the two companies settled their long-ruing patent feud, and today representatives from both companies say they'll stop sending complaints to regulators, too.

"Microsoft has agreed to withdraw its regulatory complaints against Google, reflecting our changing legal priorities," a Microsoft representative told Recode. "We will continue to focus on competing vigorously for business and for customers."

"Our companies compete vigorously, but we want to do so on the merits of our products, not in legal proceedings," reads a similar statement provided by Google.
