The EU plans to impose a fine of hundreds of millions of euros on Google for antitrust violations
According to a report by Reuters citing the German newspaper Handelsblatt, the European Union is planning to impose fines in the hundreds of millions of euros on Google's parent company Alphabet in response to its alleged violations of the Digital Markets Act (DMA). Sources indicate that a related decision is nearing completion and is expected to be announced before the summer recess, potentially becoming the largest fine issued by the EU under the DMA.
The investigation officially began in March 2025, focusing on whether Google prioritizes its own services in search results, thereby harming fair competition in the market. The European Commission stated that its primary goal is to ensure corporate compliance rather than simply imposing penalties, but if the corrective measures do not meet regulatory requirements, enforcement procedures will continue. Google responded that the adjustments made to its search products in accordance with DMA requirements have significantly impacted user experience and expressed a desire to reach a resolution with regulators.
