Google is under attack again by government agencies, but this time its Russia that’s being accused of anti-monopolistic practices.
Search site Yandev asked the anti-competition watchdog to investigate claims whether it was taking advantage of Google’s Android operating system and shutting out competing apps.
Google is denying it behaves in a monopolistic manner and according to Reuters said people have complete control over apps on devices.
The same wire says that the European Commission is also pursuing Google to answer questions about whether its dominance in the mobile operating systems marketplace precludes competition.
And that’s not the end of it – the USA is also putting Google under the magnifying glass, even though Google said it will keep Android as an open system.
