One of the European Unions highest courts has largely upheld a huge fine issued to Google by the blocs antitrust enforcers in 2018 over its Android mobile operating system. The European Court of Justices General Court on Wednesday, Sept.
The court said that"in order better to reflect the gravity and duration of the infringement," it's appropriate to give Google a fine of 4.125 billion euros, according to a press summary of the decision. That's slightly lower than the original 4.34 billion euro penalty, and the court said its reasoning differed “in certain respects” from the commission's.
It determined that Google broke EU rules by requiring smartphone makers to take a bundle of Google apps if they wanted any at all and prevented them from selling devices with altered versions of Android.
