 The European Commission fined Google 890 million euros (about 1.02 billion U.S. dollars) on Thursday for breaching the European Union's Digital Markets Act by favoring its own services in search results and preventing app developers from directing users to cheaper offers outside its Play Store. The EU executive imposed a 430 million euro (about 491 million dollars) fine over the restrictions on app developers and a separate 460 million euro (about 525 million dollars) penalty for self-preferencing in search results. It ordered Google to end both practices within 60 days. |
