GOOGLE, GIVE US A PEAK

Google Inc has not cooked its search results to favor its own products and listings, Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt told a U.S. Senate hearing looking into whether the search giant abuses its power. Members of the Senate Judiciary Committee's antitrust panel said last September that Google had grown into a dominant and potentially anti-competitive force on the Internet. This hearing should come as no surprise to anyone who has been following Google’s ongoing squabbles with the FTC and the EC. Practically every player in the digital economy is gunning for Google these days with some accusing Google of operating a “black box” algorithm that lacks transparency or accountability. Others say Google stacks the deck against rival services, such as maps or shopping services, when it display its own affiliated sites or content prominently in search results.
