I remember hearing that Google can't aggressively promote their own services in search results. (Example: When I google "search", the top 4 hits are Yahoo, search.com, AOL, & DuckDuckGo.)
Is this a proactive measure on their part to keep anti-trust regulation at bay, or an established prohibited practice? In the latter case, is there any guidance around where 'the line' is regarding this behavior?
