From [1]: "On April 8, 2011, the US Department of Justice approved the buyout (of ITA by Google). As part of the agreement, Google must license ITA software to other websites for five years."

Now that five years are up, Google would want to deny competitors access to that data. Seems like a good startup opportunity.
