💨 Abstract

South Africa's competition watchdog has found Google guilty of anti-competitive practices and recommended the tech giant pay up to 500 million rand ($27.29 million) annually in compensation to local media outlets. Google's algorithm is alleged to overrepresent global news media and underrepresent local language and community media, contributing to the erosion of the media in South Africa.
