UNLIKELY ALLIES: eBay has come out in support of Google in its current legal battle with the EU, saying the two of them were in direct competition with each other.

eBay Inc chief executive John Donahoe has supported arguments made by Google Inc in its defence in an antitrust case, saying the two companies are direct competitors in online shopping, the Financial Times reported. 

Barriers between different areas of online commerce are breaking down, Donahoe said in an interview with FT, highlighting the challenges the European Commission faces in bringing the high-profile case.
