UK makes Google a regulated "strategic market" entity due to its 90% search dominance, enabling new competition rules.
The UK’s Competition and Markets Authority has designated Google as a "strategic market status" entity due to its dominant 90% share of UK online searches, marking the first use of new digital market rules.
The move, not a finding of wrongdoing, enables the CMA to impose targeted regulations to promote competition, transparency, and innovation, potentially including user choice for search engines and changes to AI-powered search features like AI Overviews and AI Mode.
Google warns such rules could hinder AI development, while the CMA plans a consultation later this year to finalize specific requirements.
The decision aligns with global efforts to rein in Big Tech, following similar actions in the EU, Japan, South Korea, and Brazil.
