Aussies Sue Over Misleading Google Ads

Slashdot - Google is the target of another lawsuit — this time over whether or not they are responsible for the content that advertisers put up on their site.

The case involves an instance where Google displayed ads for two automotive dealerships in Australia, yet the links led users to the site of a commercial rival. The company that placed the ads in 2005 avoided a lawsuit by settling with Australian regulators, who are now going after Google for not policing the ads.

If this suit holds up it will set a precedent for very heavy ad monitoring responsibility on the part of all search engines, not just Google.

*** Are we funding ACCC to go after Google because they have the dumbest advertiser on the planet?

Wish they were my competitor.
