    The FTC is looking into whether Google abuses its dominance of Internet search to extend its influence into other lucrative online markets, such as mapping, comparison shopping and travel. Rivals complain that Google Inc., which handles two out of every three Internet searches in the U.S., manipulates its results to steer users to its own sites and services and bury links to competitors

    Laughable that the company convicted of this same thing on two continents, Microsoft, is the only large company doing the complaining. Only, in this case, Google will be found of no wrongdoing. Unlike Microsoft who was fined billions and, to this day, put under federal oversight.

    Sometimes things like this can be tough to call. And I thought there were multiple complaints, not just one complaint from Microsoft?
