Google Charged $2.7 Billion Fine for Manipulating Search Results

Google has inspired many lives who dream of being innovative entrepreneurs and rule the world. But, do you imagine that even the internet tech giant can do illegal blunders? Yes! The company has been imposed with a heavy fine of $2.7 billion (€2.42 billion) by the antitrust officials of Europe for such a case. It was claimed that Google had been manipulating its search results since 2008. And in 2010, an investigation was launched against it, after filing of complaints by several rivals. After a full-fledged investigation of seven years, Google was found guilty. The company lost its battle on Tuesday, the 27th June 2017. And, the European Commission has charged it hugely for breaking EU competition law.

Blu Phones are on SALE at Amazon

Here is the good news for all BLU  smartphones fans. BLU phones are back on sale at Amazon. Yes, the imposed time out for BLU smartphones appears to be over. After the retail giant halted sales of its phones earlier this week when spyware allegations resurfaced, BLU announced that sales had resumed. "After a false alarm, BLU devices are now back up for sale on Amazon," the company tweeted. Amazon stopped selling BLU phones following the report of a security firm Kryptowire. The company has alleged that some of the devices were collecting user data and sending it back to a server in China. The allegation seems to be resolved, but Kryptowire said a week ago that third-party software from Shanghai Adups Technology was still collecting user data. These allegations have been denied by BLU stating that “standard and basic data collection that pose no security or privacy risk." With this, several BLU model phones sales resumed at AMAZON .

The year 2017 witnessed a new way to fidget around with a must-have toy, fidget spinner. Am I right? Are you crazy about collecting fidget spinners? You can play as much as you can if you are willing to pay hefty price tag of $160 and then you may add it to your collection. A bearing maker company named NSK Micro Precision Co. has made the best spinner of all times using their ball bearings. The fidget is made out of heavy brass and light aluminum ball bearings. This product is made in Fujisawa, Kanagawa Japan , which has passed the test by AFP ’s Tokyo bureau for spinning around 13 minutes and 31 seconds . The company has made it showcase the company's ball bearings rather than spinning. The ball bearings used in the fidget spinner are used in space satellites and computer disks. The Japan based company (NSK) claims to have developed a fidget spinner that whirls longer than any other spinner available in the market. " We're confident that ours
