European Competition Commissioner: We investigate Google-Yahoo deal | EDRI on 2008-12-10
- Google announced in June that it had struck a deal with Yahoo, so it would
  sell ads on Yahoo website in return for a share of the profits. The EU
  anti-competition authorities confirms that they are investigating the deal
  between the two majors in the online advertising.
- Although the companies said that the deal would have effect only in Canada
  and the United States, The World Association of Newspapers called for a
  investigation from the EU authorities, claiming: "it would hurt Yahoo's
  ability to compete against Google in the future."

- - oogle claimed that the deal would have no effect on the EEA market, since
    "the agreement is limited in scope to Yahoo's U.S. and Canadian websites",
    while Yahoo showed his cooperation with the EU authorities stating that the
    company "has been and will continue to work with the relevant regulatory
    agencies to provide officials with the necessary information about this
    business agreement, which we believe will strengthen competition in search
    and make advertisements more relevant for our users."
  - As it was the case with the Google - Doubleclick deal, it seems that both
    the US and EU authorities will not investigate the privacy issues of the new
    Google-Yahoo agreement, even though serious concerns have already been
    expressed.
