Chrome VS Microsoft Edge

If you use Bing as your search engine, you might be surprised to learn what the most searched term on it is. According to Google, the top entry on Microsoft’s Bing search engine is for its rival Google ! That’s right, more people use Bing to find Google than anything else.

Why is that? Well, Google claims that it’s because people use Google by choice, not by force. Google made this argument in court, as it tried to appeal against a $5 billion fine from the European Union for abusing its market power. The EU accused Google of using Android’s success in the smartphone market to make Google the default search engine on most devices .

Google says that its market share in general search is consistent with consumer surveys showing that 95% of users prefer Google to rival search engines. Google also says that Android has created more choice for everyone, not less, and that users can easily switch to other search apps if they want to.

But is that really the case? Some might argue that Google has an unfair advantage over other search engines, because it has access to more data, more resources, and more influence. Some might also say that Google’s dominance in search affects other areas of online activity, such as advertising, e-commerce, and content creation.
