According to Microsoft lawyer Rima Alaily, the OCC is merely an 'astroturfing' group in which Google has disproportionate influence, designed to hurt Microsoft.
Alaily states in her blog post that Google aims to set up competition authorities against Microsoft and recruit smaller cloud providers to influence regulations.
The OCC asserts its goal is to promote open standards in cloud policy and advise policymakers on favorable regulations for both security and competition.
Following a settlement with CISPE, the OCC's formation indicates a shift in the landscape of cloud competition and regulatory influences in Europe.
