Yelp reportedly filed an antitrust complaint against Google in the EU on Tuesday, crying out that the search giant has abused its dominance to favor its own services over its competitors.

The complaint, originally reported by the Financial Times, follows a 2017 EU ruling that Google misused its dominance in shopping search results -- a move that resulted in a 2.4 billion euro fine (that's about $2.9 billion, £2 billion or AU$3.7 billion). Google is currently appealing that decision.
