CMA proposes tightening regulation, which could lead to site giving users option to choose alternative services
Google could be forced to make a series of changes to its search business, including giving internet users an option to choose alternative services, after the UK competition watchdog proposed to tighten regulation of the company.
The Competition and Market Authority (CMA) is preparing to designate the world’s largest search engine with “strategic market status” – a term that gives the watchdog extra powers to regulate technology companies deemed to have considerable market heft.
