French Court Fines Google Gamages Caused by Auto Complete. After ignoring requests from French insurance company Lyonnaise de Garantie, to remove the word "escroc" from the auto complete field while typing in the companies name, a French court fined Google the equivalent of $65,000 in damages.

Google had argued that it was not liable since the word, added under Google Suggest, was the result of an automatic algorithm and did not come from human thought.
