(Now it appears the post on Google's blog was the results of a hack, and not an official statement from the company:

A terse statement posted to the Official Google blog announced the search advertising company will stop its efforts in the click-to-call area.

Let the endless speculation begin. You know where to find the Reply button.

Did Google pull the statements on their blog referenced in Dutter's post? I couldn't find them on the bolg and his link to the text is "not found"

the statement itself as posted by Dutter seemed odd as well. Why would g admit to potential monopolistic behavior?

Could Google's blog been hacked?

Could Google's blog been hacked?
