The United Kingdom is escalating its scrutiny of Google's dominance in search and digital advertising, urging the tech giant to let publishers opt out of AI-generated Overviews. These automated summaries appear atop search results, raising concerns about content ownership and fair compensation in the digital ecosystem.

Regulators are wielding new powers after the Competition and Markets Authority designated Google with "strategic market status" last year. The move allows targeted interventions without alleging wrongdoing—a calibrated approach to rein in Big Tech's influence while preserving innovation.
