A French company joined European complaints against Google

A French company has added to the lawsuits against Google by abusing its dominant position to the European Union, which has opened an investigation into this matter without any implication that has taken any decision on the veracity of the allegations. The plaintiff company, 1PlusV, is dedicated to the opening of specialized search engines.

One of their sites, eJustice. fr, introduced last year one of the first complaints against Google, accusing him of harming competition by providing the list of results of specific searches. 1PlusV has ensured that it has submitted a further complaint to Brussels to present more evidence "further abuse" of Google.


The Commission has not formally received the complaint, said that before making a decision to listen to Google. Google, conceding that the search algorithms are always better, has denied that manipulated to benefit from the results of its own companies. 1plusV contradicts this argument by stating that eJustice had been injured in the results list because Google claimed, did not provide proper content.

However, since last December has come back indicating, according to the complainant, his disappearance was due to other reasons. EJustice addition, among societies complainants are the British website Foundem price comparison and price comparison site Ciao! As part of the Microsoft search engine Bing.
