YouTube is ranking better than ever since these last few penguin updates too. Google is just asking for a big investigation one of these days and it's either going to tone things down a bit or it'll crush Google. Personally, I wouldn't mind an era of Bing.

VB did a nice write up last month with an infrographic talking about this very thing. Very good write up if you are looking for more details.

Another interesting article talks about Danny Sullivan asking the FTC to review Google's ad placement.

Google is spending more in lobbying money then Facebook, Microsoft and Apple combined. I doubt any investigation would amount to more than a simple slap on the wrist to pacify the few people that really know enough to care (mainly us).

In America, sure.... our nation is beyond contemptible with its behavior towards big business.
Worldwide... well... time will tell
