Congressman who led fight against SOPA warns FTC against antitrust
actions against Google

http://t.co/VSLxAyXm  (ars technica)

   "A Democratic congressman who played a leading role in the fight
    against the Stop Online Piracy Act earlier this year has taken up a
    new cause: shielding Google from antitrust scrutiny. In a strongly
    worded letter to Federal Trade Commission chairman Jon Leibowitz, Rep.
    Jared Polis (D-CO) praised Google's contribution to the nation's
    economy. He warned Leibowitz that if the FTC does choose to initiate
    an antitrust case against Google, Congress might react by curtailing
    its regulatory authority."
