Regrettably, Mr Laitenbergerโ€™s suggestion that the effects of the Google โ€œremedyโ€ have been โ€œpositiveโ€ is (to borrow from the Google lexicon) โ€œwrong on the facts, the law, and the economicsโ€. #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!!! teapawt.net/nicholashirst_/status/โ€ฆ
The @EP_Economics just adopted with large majority @ramontremosa Annual report on #Competition and 2 compromise amendments on #Google #Antitrust cases: an invitation to the CEO to come exchange with MEPs & unbundling is back on the table @vestager @EU_Competition @Andreas_Schwab
