Google Complaint Decision Hasn’t Been Reached by EU’s Antitrust Regulator
January 5, 2012
European Union regulators haven’t decided whether they should file a formal complaint against Google over possible discrimination against rivals in search results, the EU’s antitrust chief said.
“The commission is to date not in a position to say whether its investigation will lead to issuing a statement of objections,” EU Competition Commissioner Joaquin Almunia said in a statement published on the European Parliament’s website. “A thorough assessment of the several categories of allegations of infringements of competition rules brought forward by several complainants is necessary,” Almunia said in a written response to a question from an EU lawmaker.
