Yelp's Antitrust Lawsuit Against Google
Yelp has filed a lawsuit against Google, claiming that the search engine has illegally maintained its monopoly by manipulating its search results page. The lawsuit asserts that Google deprives competitors, like Yelp and TripAdvisor, of visibility, thereby harming their ability to reach customers without paying for sponsored results. This follows a recent ruling where a judge found Google guilty of violating antitrust laws in a separate case concerning distribution contracts. The outcome of Yelp's lawsuit remains uncertain, particularly since it hinges on evidence that was previously dismissed in a related government case.
