Regrettably, Mr Laitenberger’s suggestion that the effects of the Google “remedy” have been “positive” is (to borrow from the Google lexicon) “wrong on the facts, the law, and the economics”. #WatchThisSpace

@nicholashirst_ The headline is misleading as @vestager and her team did a good job on the prohibition decision, much better than @AlmuniaJoaquin. The problem is Google and the way they are trying to address @vestager decision. The Remedy is not working!!! xitter.cf/nicholashirst_/status/…

Google Search: Why Google's auction 'remedy' is not compliant and what happens next

Why a functional separation of Google Shopping does not make Google's auction-based 'remedy' compliant with the required equal-treatment remedy.
