ادامه مطلب Enlarge ImageEU Commissioner for Competition Margrethe Vestager in Brussels earlier this year. Thierry Charlier/AFP/Getty Images The European Commission is going after Google again, arguing that the tech giant has abused its position as the world's leading search engine by favoring its own shopping service in search results. The European Union's executive body also claims that the search giant has artificially restricted third-party websites' ability to display search advertisements from Google competitors. "Google has come up with many innovative products that have made a difference to our lives. But that doesn't give Google the right to deny other companies the chance to compete and innovate," Commiss...

ادامه مطلب Venmo In its most recent 10-Q filing, Paypal Holdings stated that the FTC issued a Civil Investigative Demand (CID) request for documents related to possible deceptive or unfair practices by the company's Venmo peer-to-peer payment service at the end of March. While the filing states that the company was complying with the demand and cautioned that there could be financial repercussions from the investigation, it unsurprisingly didn't provide any details about the substance of the CID. (In fact, the language in the filing looks like was pulled directly from the FTC Act.) We reached out to Venmo for comment and got its stock response: As a global payments provider, we are completely aligned...
ادامه مطلب Google and the EU could be about to knock heads once again -- this time over image piracy.Photo agency Getty Images is accusing Google of encouraging piracy and lodged a complaint against the company on Wednesday with the European Commission.By displaying photos owned by Getty in its own picture search results, Google is taking away traffic that would otherwise go to Getty's website, the photo agency claims.Getty's case is just the latest in a string of antitrust complaints lodged with the Commission's competition directorate against Google. Only last week, Europe's competition commissioner charged Google over Android abuses following a yearlong investigation. When companies are found to break Europe's competition laws as Google now has on several occasions, they have to adjust business pr...

Uber The European Commission is reportedly readying itself to challenge French taxi laws following a complaint from ride-hailing service Uber.A formal notice is set to be issued by the Commission, which will point out that the national law in France breaches a European Union treaty, Reuters reported on Tuesday, citing "two people familiar with the matter."The law in question means that chauffeured cars have to retu to a base in between customers and bans the use of geolocation software for finding cars or customers.

ادامه مطلب Uber is using technology to find out if passengers are getting a safe ride. Uber Is your Uber driver going too fast or stopping too short? The ride-hailing service says it will now be able to find out. Uber has been conducting a test program to measure the actions of its drivers, the San Francisco company said in a blog post Tuesday. By checking the GPS and accelerometers in a driver's smartphone, Uber can detect overall speed and determine if the driver accelerates too quickly or slams on the brakes too hard. If a rider complains that a driver drove too fast or too dangerously, the company can analyze the smartphone data to see if the complaint is valid. Uber, built around a smartphone app that lets...
