Google Ready To Cooperate With EU On Anti-trust Probe

AHN News Staff

Washington, United States (AHN) – The European Commission has started an anti-trust probe into American search engine giant Google. The commission’s move came upon complaint by other search engines like price comparison site Foundem and legal search engine ejustice.fr that the American firm had misused its dominant position.

The firms claimed that Google penalized competing services of other firms in its results. Responding to the allegations, Google rejected the claims and vowed to cooperate with the Commission to address any such concerns.

Earlier, Texas attorney general launched similar investigation against Google after Foundem and other firms complained against the world’s largest search engine. In both the cases, the competitors accused Google of manipulating its search results.

“The European Commission has decided to open an antitrust investigation into allegations that Google has abused a dominant position in online search,” the body said in a statement.

The search service providers’ concern on unfavorable treatment of their services in Google’s unpaid and sponsored search results prompted them to take an action against the American firm.

However, Google’s executive said that since they started the firm, they have worked hard to do the right thing by the users as well as industry.

“But there’s always going to be room for improvement, and so we’ll be working with the Commission to address any concerns,” the American giant said in a statement.

Mountain View, CA, United States (AHN) – For the second year in a row Google is offering free Wi-Fi service in the skies during the holidays. Millions of passengers on AirTran, Delta, and Virgin America flights will have access to surfing the Web for free on flights between Nov. 22 and Jan. 2, 2011.

AirTran, Delta, and Virgin America have all outfitted their entire domestic fleets with Wi-Fi capability, totaling more than 700 planes.

Google is hoping that the Gogo Inflight promotion will boost users of Google Chrome.

“Not too long ago, flying home for the holidays meant disconnecting for several hours until you touched down at your destination,” said Sundar Pichai, Google’c vice president of product management for Chrome.

“Today, Wi-Fi technologies allow us to stay connected even at 30,000 feet above the ground, so we can read the news, browse the web and send that last-minute planning email before the family reunion.”

All three airlines have fleet-wide Wi-Fi that typically costs between $6 and $13.
