  • This morning Google threw in the towel over the Yahoo deal after the recent ad deal was not enough to satisfy the Justice Department
  • The terms would have put a 25 percent cap on the search-related revenues that Yahoo can generate from the partnership.
  • The deal doesn’t make sense anymore for Google as it’s too much headache for what would be a capped reward.
