Today, Association for Competitive Technology president Jonathan Zuck welcomed reports that Google has made proposals to the European Commission that may quell growing fears about the company’s abuse of its monopolies. Zuck offered the following comments in response to the news:
“It is encouraging to hear Google has accepted Commissioner Almunia’s offer and is proposing remedies to the Commission’s antitrust concerns up front. We can only hope that Google is taking this opportunity seriously by offering legitimate solutions that could preempt a long court battle.”
“If Google has made serious proposals, we look forward to learning more and being able provide industry feedback as part of the Commission’s market testing of the proposals.”
