Google has gotten the word from EU Competition Czar Joaquin Almunia wants them to deal with some Antitrust issues related to the fact that they may have been unfairly pushing its own web services over others. They have to do this within a few weeks or they will face an investigation and possible fines. Just ask Microsoft about how expensive that can be. Now Google has said that it hasn’t done anything wrong, but I’m guessing that they’ll be a lot of talking between Mountain View and Brussels over the next little while.
