EU fines Google $1 billion for abusing search and Play Store dominance · 4 sources tracked

By PulseAugur Editorial · [7 sources] ·

Google has been fined nearly $1 billion by the European Union for violating the Digital Markets Act. The EU Commission imposed two penalties: €460 million for unfairly favoring its own search services, such as Google Flights and Hotels, over competitors, and €430 million for preventing app developers from offering consumers alternative payment options outside the Google Play Store. Google's general counsel, Kent Walker, stated that the decision harms European users by degrading product quality, while EU officials emphasized the act's purpose is to ensure fair competition and innovation.
