The EU just fined Google a staggering 890 million euros — roughly $1 billion — for allegedly using its search engine and Google Play to unfairly promote its own services, stifling competition and limiting consumer choice. This is the latest blow in a growing EU crackdown on Big Tech, following a recent 4.5 billion euro penalty over Android’s business practices. Google fires back, calling the fine “product degradation,” claiming new EU rules force it to remove popular features like real-time travel pricing and weaken security — ultimately harming users and European businesses. The EU stands firm, insisting gatekeepers must ensure fair competition and that consumers deserve the right to choose the best options, not just the ones owned by the biggest players.
