I've long been against Microsoft's practices, but from what I can tell, they are clearly in the right on this: Google is using it's market power to restrict competition in various ways.
This anti-competitive behavior should be stopped, regardless of the irony.
It doesn't matter if it's Google, Microsoft, Apple, the NFL, AT&T, IBM, U.S. sugar producers, or a company you haven't heard of yet - if one or more companies are leveraging market power to enter new markets or limit competition in their market, they should be stopped.
