Misleading Ads: ACCC Wins Appeal Against Google
As previously noted on Slashdot, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has been involved in a long-running legal battle with Google.

The headline of each of the advertisements in question comprised a business name, product name or web address of a competitor's business not sponsored, affiliated or associated with the particular advertiser.
