They should investigate google because (my opinion):

1 It has destroyed an incalculable number of companies without giving way to recover traffic
2 He has allowed the sites he does business with to have a star traffic (reddit)
3 its YouTube platform is everywhere with multiple consecutive videos preventing sites from being able to receive enough traffic
4 put people also ask and related searches in positions that cause the sites they get information from to lose traffic, but allow Google to keep users in the search engine longer
5 When I do a commercial search on Google, I find shopping ads that can mislead the user (e.g. Best of)
6 Google Shopping in the first position + 4 paid ads are the death of the next sites
7 Google has infringed on the copyright of the sites and wants to use SGE to destroy traffic to the sites from which it took the information without permission

Let's hope that the EU will do a good check

I think that Google and Meta in particular need scrutiny. Their ad systems are sheer fraud at this point, delivering mostly fake clicks. Thats why i wont pay to run ads on these platforms, its basically a license to rip customers off. Even worse, the manipulation of the organic search results now at Google is just mind boggling

I don't see Apple as being nearly as shady, but I am not an app developer...
