Bringing the core revenue source of both leading Internet companies to the spotlight, The European commission officially reported that it has launched a comprehensive investigation on how the Advertising giants are misusing the user’s data evading the Antitrust Regulations and Laws of the country.

While Facebook did not respond to the issue as yet, Google’s Spokesperson told media that “Google uses data to make our services more useful and to show relevant advertising, and we give people the controls to manage, delete or transfer their data. We will continue to engage with the Commission and others on this important discussion for our industry.”
