The Washington Post has this piece today that talks about Google’s growing team of lobbyists in DC, eleven today, when just two years ago the company had none.
Interesting enough, but this is well-trod territory (see here and here). What’s more interesting is whether Google will use its new-found lobbying sophistication for good or evil.
Anyway, this non-newsworthy piece is probably a direct result of Google’s decision to join the still-small ranks of corporate tech and communications policy bloggers. You can now wager a lot of money that trade associations, lobbying oufits, and DC offices of cable, telco, content and high-tech companies are rushing to launch their own heretofore-scorned blogs.
