European Commission Seeks to Appease Google Antitrust Complainants

European Union regulators are trying to get more concessions from Google after receiving negative feedback from companies that asked the EU to investigate Google's search results practices. That's according to a report by Bloomberg, which cites its own interview with the European Commission's competition chief, Joaquin Almunia, in which he said that companies like Microsoft and Expedia gave very negative feedback to the proposed agreement with Google. Almunia said that the EU, as well as Google, needs to see if it can find solutions to new arguments introduced by some complainants who argue that Google treats its competitors unfairly in search results.
