While I think it's a topic worthy of informed debate. Looking at EU's antitrust decision against Google, the requirements to include competitors listings in results does not seem to have made much difference. Yelp's revenue streams are orthogonal and complementary to say, the results via local searches in Google Maps. Information is not a zero-sum game.
Much more urgent would be antitrust inquiry into consumer credit systems. Mortgage applicants are at the mercy of an opaque, antiquated credit score apparatus. While a majority of small businesses, professional services, and merchants prefer to be paid in check or cash in the US. For large transactions, this is a headwind against efficient commerce. The fee structure is simply too dashed high.
