Not a g'day for Google Australia

Crime - Law

Internet

Google's not making a very good impression Down Under. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission is taking the search engine to court, claiming Google uses deceptive practices when it comes to the use of its paid advertising links.

At the heart of the dispute is how Google displays search results, specifically where advertisers are sometimes listed in results and not identified as sponsors. Sponsored links have pushed Google's stock market value to $169 billion. Google says the claims are bogus.
