Google accused of anti-competitive practices that have led to 65 million UK consumers paying more for goods and services

The claim accuses Google of shutting out search engine competition on smartphones by fixing things to make itself the default on practically all mobile phones in the UK. This led to higher prices for advertisers who, to a large extent, have passed costs onto consumers, forcing them to pay more for goods and services than they would in a competitive market.
