EC prepares new antitrust case against Google - report
2015-04-02 08:49:00| Telecompaper Headlines

An undisclosed number of his clients had received the requests, he said. According to an executive at another company that had been approached by the EC, the extracts the regulators want to publish focus on Google's competition with so-called "vertical", or specialised, search services, such as comparison shopping sites, travel search engines and sites for finding local services. Rivals accuse Google of giving preferential treatment to search results from its own services. Google declined to comment
