Google did the same "embrace, extend and extinguish" play to Java on mobile (Android) and to Firefox on the web (Chrome): "hey, we love you, all on the same boat... Well, I guess we are a bit better now... Alright, now we call the shots".

Anybody worrying about '90s Microsoft should be much more wary of Google by now, and anybody working at Google pretending this is not going on is simply deluded.
