Yeah, I know, I don't trust Google as much as the next person; but I just don't think they can really do what they're doing with the AOSP to Go, I mean, Go is fully open-source, and doesn't depend on Google for anything really.

If Google did try to pull something with Go, the language would just be forked. But I frankly don't see what Google would get out of restricting Go. For a mobile operating system, it makes very good business sense, they can direct more users to their own app store to show them ads and get more revenue, but a programming language is a tool, not a commercial product (at least nowadways).
