Gambling Suit Against Search Engines to Proceed

by admin on June 8th, 2005

A gambling suit against major search Engines in California is set to proceed, according to a report today at Threadwatch.
The complaint alleges that Yahoo!, Google, Overture, Ask Jeeves, LookSmart, AltaVista, Terra Lycos, Jupiter, FindWhat, Kanoodle, Business.com and Sex.com violated California law by providing paid or “sponsored” advertisements in violation of the California Penal Code provisions and the California Unlawful Business Practices Act. Google and Yahoo! reportedly have since abandoned gambling advertisements, but are still subject to the lawsuit for their prior actions.
