For two months the website of Tuta Mail was hidden from Google search results. This significantly impacted our visibility, and despite repeated attempts to get in touch with Google,
the tech giant remained silent. In April we decided to go public with the issue and submitted a complaint based on the DMA to the
EU regulators so that, miraculously, on May 9th, our website ranking was restored. This incident underscores a much larger issue: the immense, unchecked power Google wields over online
visibility and the potential for abuse against smaller competitors.
