Google has agreed with Mozilla's stand on the browser restrictions in ARM version of Windows 8 operating system. Earlier today, Mozilla criticized Microsoft for blocking all third-party browsers from the classic version of Windows 8 RT and severely restricting the access in the Metro version too.

Now Google, which makes Chrome browser, has joined Mozilla in the fight of browser choice in Windows 8 RT. Here is company's full statement to Cnet regarding the same:

"We share the concerns Mozilla has raised regarding the Windows 8 environment restricting user choice and innovation.
