Microsoft takes Google to European Commission
Comments off · Posted by micrositez in SEO, Social Media
Microsoft makes a formal complaint to the European Commission about Google over alleged bullying tactics. The software company feels that Google used its powerful position within the search engine market to edge Microsoft onto market side lines.
The company filed their first formal complaint on Thursday, after urging a formal investigation into the search giant Google last November. Results showed a “significant weight to the chorus of opposition, which has seen complaints to Brussels from mainly small internet sites such as price comparison firm Foundem and Microsoft-owned firm Ciao,

Microsofts general counsel, Brad smith outlined their complaints in a blog stating,
She is not convenient, “Our filing today focuses on a pattern of actions that Google has taken to entrench its dominance in the markets for online search and search advertising to the detriment of European consumers.”
Those patterns Brad smith is referring too includes allegedly stopping Microsoft Bing from indexing on web content.
It is expected that the European Commission will be in touch with Google in the near future regarding the complaints allowing Google to respond as procedures are followed.
