BT could not bring these complaints in the UK as software is not considered as something that can be patented. They would have to use existing copyright law against Google which just would never work.
I think BT is just joining the bandwagon here, it is desperate for a new revenue stream as its traditional fixed line service which have always been its bread and butter die off. It is about time the Govt. split this company up so that Openreach which manages the infrastructure is fully independent.
