Has Google got too big?

Is the search engine giant an invaluable service provider or an over-dominant monopoly?


Although Google started life as a search engine, it has now become so much more than that, economically, and even politically. But has it become too big? Is it taking over too many areas of the internet, elbowing aside smaller web-based businesses? Is it harming web-users’ right to privacy online? Or should we welcome the growth of a corporation that is shaping and developing such a naturally unwieldy space as the internet? Join us and our panel of experts as we explore the issues around Google's expansion.
