A new lawsuit has just fallen on Google. It comes this time a user calls into question one of the key principles of the web, that of "referral links".
These links allow content creators to know which sites and which keywords generate their traffic. They are one of the most addressed by web developers and webmasters to optimize their content and optimize their ranking.

It would even, according to the complainant, in contradiction with the conditions of service of search engine giant.

And Google too?
