Google too powerful? The Greens think so!

The parliamentary group of the Greens in the Bundestag, the lower chamber of Germany's federal parliament published a booklet called "Suchmaschinen: Das Tor zum Netz" ("Search Engines: The Gate to the Net"). The Greens want to remind the search engine operators of the "great responsibility" they bear and demand that they clearly disclose sponsored results. In the opinion of the Greens it is also very important to strengthen alternatives to the current market leader Google.
