It's displaying ads above the search results. That's what google does. It's their whole business. It's not pushing their own review services over yelp, it's advertising alongside search results.
- simion314 9y agoWhat about when they put a Chrome ad even if you are not searching for replacing your browser? So the main point with the EU antitrust is not about yelp but about Google putting it's own stuff on top , not about the ads.
- Canning 9y agoThis one should stand out to most people so it's no surprise to me that EU took note as well.
- tyingq 9y agoThat's likely the crux of the complaint. It's not alongside, it's on top of...and "over" Yelp. And the query specifically included the word Yelp.
- quadrangle 9y agoNo, when Google just lists local businesses and puts them on a map, that's NOT ads. Businesses get listed at no charge.
