Is Google a "freeloader"?

A Verizon executiveaccused Google of freeloading for using a network of lines and cables the phone company spent billions of dollars to build.

It is time, he told the audience, to end Google's free lunch.

"The network builders are spending a fortune constructing and maintaining the networks that Google intends to ride on with nothing but cheap servers. ... It is enjoying a free lunch that should, by any rational account, be the lunch of the facilities providers."
