LONDON: Britain’s competition regulator on Tuesday said it was proposing to designate Google with “strategic market status” to give it greater control over how the U.S. tech giant operates search services.
The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) said the designation – the first proposed under its new big tech regime – would enable the regulator to force Google to ensure fairer ranking for businesses appearing on Google search.
