Microsoft to buy Claria? |
|
|
NYTimes is reporting that Microsoft has been in talks with Claria for about two weeks in a buyout deal: "The offer price on the table as recently as yesterday was $500 million, according to people who have been briefed on the talks. But a person close to Microsoft said last night that the negotiations were on the verge of breaking off. ... Claria, which changed its name from Gator two years ago, has been criticized by privacy advocates and sued by Web publishers, including The New York Times Company. " However, there is opposition within Microsoft to discontinue talks and not purchase Claria. Would it be possible that Microsoft buys out Claria and shuts them down entirely? Goodbye to the old Gator/new Claria problems so many users face? That would be one way to take care of the Claria issue.
