# FTC Gives Go-Ahead to Google-DoubleClick Deal - Host: [gigaom.com](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/hosts/gigaom.com/) - Saved: December 20, 2007 (2007-12-20T15:07:37Z) - Record: https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/bfe9456e9886/ - JSON: https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/bfe9456e9886.json ## From the page (probably an excerpt, not Jamie's words) This just in: Googles $3.1 billion merger with DoubleClick has been cleared by the Federal Trade Commission, which said it saw neither current nor potential competitive problems with the deal. Australia and Brazil have already cleared it as well, but Google cannot close the acquisition until the European Commission, which is still examining it, gives the OK. ## Facts - Kind: [Page](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/kinds/page/) ## Same host - [Updated: @ DJ Shareholder Meeting: Shareholders Approve Sale Of Dow Jones; 60.27 Percent Support](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/458dc0633bb1/) (gigaom.com, December 13, 2007) - [Amazon Web Services launches SimpleDB Beta](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/00a1009018e7/) (gigaom.com, December 14, 2007) - [Dow Jones CMO Ann Marks Leaves As Well](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/9b9d8b8d85c7/) (gigaom.com, December 14, 2007) - [Factiva Downplays FT Subscription Fee; Impact From A Free WSJ.com Is Uncertain](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/87c95d0ccebf/) (gigaom.com, December 20, 2007) - [Apple Rumor Site Think Secret Shutting Down On Settlement](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/6def35be2993/) (gigaom.com, December 20, 2007) ## Saved the same week - [Oh My God Apple Killed Think Secret Those Bastards](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/ea8ffdc40554/) (techcrunch.com, December 20, 2007) - [Apple, Think Secret settle lawsuit; Think Secret will no longer be published](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/c1003481844b/) (macdailynews.com, December 20, 2007) - [Twitter Downtime On the Upswing](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/3d81d909b373/) (techcrunch.com, December 20, 2007) - [Romney: I invented the Internet.](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/88b1dd780112/) (dailykos.com, December 20, 2007) - [Factiva Downplays FT Subscription Fee; Impact From A Free WSJ.com Is Uncertain](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/87c95d0ccebf/) (gigaom.com, December 20, 2007) ## Elsewhere - Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://gigaom.com/2007/12/20/ftc-gives-go-ahead-to-google-doubleclick-deal/
