ByICOMP Secretariat Following Google's recognition that its 95% market dominance on both PC and mobile based services may have harmed numerous companies across the Internet and acceptance of the Commission's "framework", ICOMP announces that a robust dialogue for resolving the many concerns raised will continue.
Commenting on the announcement David Wood, Counsel, ICOMP, said:
Google's acceptance of the Commission's "framework" and commitment to offer remedies for both PC and mobile based Internet was a hugely significant acknowledgement of their market power and illegal anti-competitive behaviour; we should soon discover whether they are serious about addressing the concerns raised not only by the Commission but also numerous companies over the last few years.

ByMichael WeberScientific Study reveals Google's Methods and Effects
European Union Google Antitrust Case
Everyone knows Google's search engine, and many rely on it
every day to find anything they might be looking for. For webmasters too,
Google has become vitally important: the vast majority of website visitors surfs
to them via the search giant, whose market share in some countries exceeds
95%.
The online map service hot-map.com wanted to know if everything was above
board, when in spite of many top rankings on Google for hot map's city and
country maps worldwide, and more people using the web every year, visitor
numbers to hot-map.com were on a mysterious decline.

Antitrust: The European Commission invites comments from interested parties on commitments offered by Google in relation to online search and search advertising.
The Commission has concerns that Google may be abusing its dominant position in the markets for web search, online search advertising and online search advertising intermediation in the European Economic Area (EEA). Google has made proposals to try to address the Commission's four competition concerns. Interested parties can now submit their comments within one month. The Commission will take them into account in its analysis of Google's commitment proposals. If the Commission concludes that they address its four competition concerns, it may decide to make them legally binding on Google.

Six European data protection authorities to launch coordinated and simultaneous enforcement actions.
From March to October 2012, the Article 29 Working Party investigated into Google’s privacy policy with the aim of checking whether it met the requirements of the European Data Protection Directive (95/46/CE).
In view of the findings of this analysis which was published on 26 October 2012, the EU Data protection authorities asked Google to comply with their recommendations within 4 months.
After this period has expired, Google has not implemented any significant compliance measures.

ByICOMPStatement on “Deeply Disappointing” FTC Google Decision Almunia issues strongest warning yet to Google. Google has resolved the US Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) 20 month antitrust probe by “voluntarily” agreeing to implement certain changes to the way it conducts its search business.
The announcement unveiled a voluntary agreement and consent decree on Google’s alleged misuse of patents which will involve the company altering the way it uses content from other websites and allowing advertisers to export data to other platforms.
Responding to the news, the Founder and CEO of ICOMP Member One News Page, Marc Pinter-Krainer commented:

Screenshot from video (see link below)
BySylvie FodorIn Germany and in France debate rages over the commonly called "Lex Google". On Friday 30 November, the Bundestag sent the bill for reading to the Legal Committee. Will the publishers or will Google get their way?
Initially put forth by the Federation of German News Publishers, soon followed in France by a similar initiative, the law is backed by all major publishers in Germany, France and Italy. In France, the law has been nicknamed “Lex Google”.
If passed, the law would require news aggregators such as Google News to pay a copyright fee to publishers on snippets of text from news articles. The intention is to allow publishers to recover some of the advertising revenue that they say is lost to aggregators. Of course, there are many news aggregators but Google News is by far the largest one.

The framework agreement was announced on Monday between the Syndicat National de l’Edition (National Syndicate of Publishers), the Société des Gens de Lettres (SGDL) and Google, constituting a hard fought victory for the whole of the online book market ...
...and a first step towards the recognition of the need for the protection of cultural and artistic heritage.
After six years of dispute with Google, a framework agreement has been established, aiming to regulate and indexation of works unavailable for sale in paper versions (out of commerce books) and still under copyright. From now on, Google will only be able to digitize and exploit works with the agreement of the French publishers concerned.
This initiative constitutes a step forward in the spread of the e-book and the diversity of creation, as well as the respect of copyright.
