ETtech Explainer: Why did Google delist popular Indian apps like Naukri, Shaadi, others?
Google on Friday removed several popular apps by ten Indian developers from its Play Store, citing non-compliance with billing policies. This move has sparked a contentious dispute between the tech giant and Indian developers over what they perceive as Google’s «unfair» policies. But less than a day later, it started reinstating some of the apps on the Play Store, which began complying with its billing norms. Which apps have been impacted? Among the delisted apps were Bharat Matrimony, Telugu Matrimony, Tamil Matrimony, Marathi Matrimony, Matrimony.com’s Jodii and People Group’s Shaadi.com, along with dating apps Truly Madly and QuackQuack.

‘Google must face some advertisers' antitrust claims,’ says US judge
'We got it wrong': Google CEO Sundar Pichai says 'Gemini AI responses show bias' Castel also said Gannett, the largest U.S. newspaper chain and publisher of USA Today, could try in a separate case to prove that Google fraudulently concealed anticompetitive effects of some technology. Gannett alleged that it sold some of its ad space directly to advertisers, but Google still made the inventory available for auction on its ad exchange in order to accrue transaction fees for its own benefit.

Gemini, a case of twin bias, anti-bias
Google's generative AI product Gemini has drawn angry responses of inbuilt bias, which may not be the case. The problem with inaccurate rendition of historical faces — including a 'less controversial' image of a Black Elon Musk (pic) — could be more a function of undue haste in bringing Gemini to market than any desire to subvert history that conspiracy theorists are alleging. Technology products undergo continuous refinement over their life cycle, most of which occurs after they have been released commercially.

Final hearings on the matter are pending before both the CCI and the Supreme Court.

Once a Hot Stock-Market Trend Has a Name, Its Best Days Are Likely Past
Once a stock-market trend has been identified and named—think FAANG or the Magnificent Seven—the headiest gains are typically past. But riding a trend after it has been named can deliver market-beating returns for another year or so before the trade loses momentum and gives back some of the gains. To study the performance of named stock-market trends, my research assistants (Matthew Rickard and Camila Marín Builes) and I did a deep-dive on eight named trends over the past 10 years that were popularized by the mainstream media and covered by more than three such organizations.
