The European Commission has notified Google that it received complaints from three companies about its search ranking practices. The companies are a UK price comparison site, Foundem, a French legal search engine, ejustice.fr, and Microsoft’s Ciao! from Bing. Foundem also filed a complaint with the FCC, citing concerns over “search neutrality.” Though each is slightly different, all of the complaints center on how the companies show up in search rankings, Julia Holtz, senior competition counsel, said in a post on Google’s European Public Policy Blog.
