Typical of the bullies in the EU. It's only illegal if they say so. :rolleyes:

Question though, if they are already dominating the market, how the hell do you abuse it to become more dominant and if people use it's search engine, what's wrong with them promoting their services?

Many companies promote their own services so l personally see nothing wrong with that.

EU on the backfoot again. I think this is related.

Google will no longer read your emails to tailor ads
