Former Hacker Irks Microsoft In EU Dispute | |
|
||
| Time: 08:04 EST/13:04 GMT | News Source: Wall Street Journal | Posted By: John Quigley | ||

As an expert witness on digital crime, British computer consultant Neil Barrett has helped prosecutors in the United Kingdom convict murderers and pedophiles. Now Mr. Barrett is finding out what it's like to be on trial, as the independent trustee and chief technical expert in the European Union's mammoth antitrust battle with Microsoft Corp. European Commission regulators in Brussels chose Mr. Barrett from among Microsoft's own nominees for the job of judging whether the company is complying with a 2004 EU ruling that it help its competitors design software to mesh with its nearly ubiquitous Windows operating system. Following Mr. Barrett's scathing assessments of Microsoft's efforts, the European Commission threatened the company with fines that could exceed €100 million, or $120 million -- prompting Microsoft to attack Mr. Barrett's competence and to accuse him of colluding with its rivals. Regulators last week rose to Mr. Barrett's defense. | ||
