> search providers will state the price that they are willing to pay each time a user selects them from the choice screen in the given country<p>So the most profitable search engines will win.<p>Meaning the search providers most willing to sell their user's personal data.<p>> Google will send a monthly invoice to search providers and charge only when the provider is selected by the user<p>So the alternative to Google unfairly benefiting it's search engine at the expense of the competition is Google charging it's competitors to compete fairly.<p>It's like if Ford owned most roads in the country, and charged Tesla any time someone drove on them<p>(Although, to be fair, Google in this analogy invented the roads and built them itself - still means the search engine market isn't a fair competition)
