U.K. proposes letting websites refuse being included in Google's AI search Website publishers argue that Google's artificial intelligence-generated summaries discourage clicks to their original pages, reducing traffic to their sites and, in turn, cutting their advertising revenue. LONDON - Britain's competition watchdog proposed Wednesday that websites be allowed to opt out of having their content be used by Google's AI Overviews feature as it tackles the technology giant's dominance in online search. The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) in October paved the way for tougher regulation on the matter, under new targeted measures focused on technology giants. Last year, it designated Google with strategic market status (SMS), subjecting it to special requirements, following a nine-month investigation.

Apple could unveil Gemini-powered Siri in Feb. UK wants to give web publishers a'fairer' deal with Google's AI overviews It's recommending measures including an'opt out' and proper attribution. The UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is recommending measures to give publishers more control over how their content is used in Google's AI overviews. The aim is to "provide a fairer deal for content publishers, particularly news organizations," the CMA's chief executive Sarah Cardell said in a press release . With Google accounting for more than 90 percent of search inquiries in the UK, the CMA recently designated the company with "strategic market status" for search under the Digital Market Act. That allows the regulator to apply "conduct requirements" on Google to promote competition and avoid antitrust issues.

The first step is always to figure out how easy or hard the VPN is to use. Windscribe and other VPNs are important tools, but you'll never use them if the UI gets in the way. I tested Windscribe's desktop apps on Windows and Mac, its mobile apps on iOS and Android and its Chrome and Firefox browser extensions. To start with, let me say that installing Windscribe is a breeze no matter where you do it. The downloaders and installers handle their own business, only requiring you to grant a few permissions. The apps arrive on your system ready to use out of the box.
