Despite complaints to the Federal Trade Commission, independent engineers found that Google&#8217;s search algorithms usually cause its services to appear ahead of others in search results.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The FTC investigated whether Google abused its web search dominance to advantage certain websites over others unfairly. To allow the investigation to meet with greater transparency, the FTC provided more information about how it had evaluated factors like pricing and advertising. The FTC found that Google&#8217;s actions had not been anti-competitive and did not illegally guide consumers&#8217; searches results. However, because of negative publicity resulting from the investigation, Google made changes to ensure that its actions were fair.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-3866","hr-glossary","type-hr-glossary","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v27.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>What is Algorithmic Transparency ?
