U.S. Investigating Google Inc.'s Unit Over Patent Licensing-Reuters

Reuters reported that U.S. antitrust regulators are investigating whether Google Inc. unit Motorola Mobility is living up to licensing commitments made when its patents were adopted as industry standards. The Federal Trade Commission sent civil investigative demands, essentially civil subpoenas, to companies this week asking them about Motorola Mobility's licensing practices, one person said. The industry standards affected have to do with Wi-Fi and video standards, one of the people said.
