EU fines Google $5bn

The EU has fined Google $5 billion for antitrust violations related to Android.

The EC says that Google used Android to boost its market share in search by insisting that phone manufacturers who used Android pre-installed Google Search.

“Google has used Android as a vehicle to cement the dominance of its search engine,” says Competition Commissioner Margrethe Vestager.

Vestager has already fined Google $2.8 billion for favouring its own shopping service in Google searches.

Vestager is also pursuing a third complaint against Google relating AdSense,  its ad-placing service.

The new fine is by far the biggest imposed by the EU.
