There is unnecessary confusion in the Google-Bing controversy regarding the ownership of search results. While Vivek Wadhwa from TechCrunch is to be commended for illustrating Google's sly, attention-diverting tactics in this matter, Google still owns their search results. The very order of the most obscure search is the basis of their wealth.

The fact that these results might be flawed is irrelevant. Google did not just build the world's biggest distributed computer in order to create content that other companies can simply pass off as their own (and then profit from).
