金吾财讯 | 据媒体报道,多家搜索引擎以及其他团体向欧盟当局发函,要求对 Alphabet 旗下的谷歌展开调查,他们认为谷歌或许违反了欧盟的数字竞争法。在一封呈递给欧盟最高科技官员与反垄断执法官员的信件中,部分搜索引擎、科技专家以及倡导团体指出,谷歌对《数字市场法》(Digital Markets Act)的规定置若罔闻。该法案明确要求全球规模最大的一批科技公司,应当让用户能够更便捷地切换至其热门且占据主导地位平台的替代选项,同时向竞争对手开放这些平台。
依据《数字市场法》,谷歌有义务向竞争对手的搜索引擎开放其搜索排名、查询记录、点击数据以及浏览数据,并且在 Android 手机用户进行设备升级或购置新设备时,为用户提供选择,允许他们自主挑选默认浏览器或者搜索引擎。这封信由来自宾夕法尼亚州的 DuckDuckGo、捷克门户网站 Seznam,以及 Article19、开放市场研究所(Open Markets Institute)等活动团体共同签署。信中提及:“谷歌不仅逃避切实合规,还规避自身应尽义务,持续削弱竞争对手的竞争能力。”
