Amazon is is doing with sponsored listings the same thing that Google did with its organic search results. "Oh your site is not the top 3 in search results for this keyword? You have a chance to stand out if you buy these ads." The shady difference here between the two is that Google did not try to show results from their own company, Amazon is.

When I search “email”, “maps”, “video”, and “cloud” through google on iOS safari, I get as the first non-ad result; Gmail, google maps, YouTube, and google cloud respectively.

Other than Apple, who pretty much only support apple products (Which are not used by a statistical majority of the global population), what real alternatives are there? I think most people are looking for google maps, not HERE maps, when they search "maps"
