Legal setback for Google in Europe
The European Union's Court of Justice confirmed the validity of the record €4.1 billion fine imposed on Google after rejecting an appeal submitted by Alphabet, due to its monopolistic practices related to the Android operating system. The court pointed out that Google exploited its dominance in the search market and limited competitors' opportunities by imposing conditions on phone manufacturers, such as pre-installing and setting its services as default on devices sold in Europe, thereby unlawfully strengthening its monopoly. This case is part of a series of European investigations into Google concerning the preference of its services and the restriction of competition, having previously imposed fines totaling €2.4 billion in 2017.
