Turkish Competition Board fines Google

Turkish Competition Board fined Google approx. TL 196 million as it abused its dominance by complicating activities of organic results (for which Google did not receive ad revenues) in the market for content services through intensively giving place to text ads above general search results without definite information on their ad nature. The press release dated 13.11.2020 about the decision, dated 12.11.2020 and numbered 20-49/675-295, is available via https://www.rekabet.gov.tr/tr/Guncel/google-reklamcilik-ve-pazarlama-ltd-sti--749ea479bc25eb11812f005056b1ce21
