EU punishes Google with big fine

112

The EU punishes the firm Google. Google comes from the USA. The firm must pay 890 million Euro.

Google treats own offers better. Google shows own services on top in the search. That is unfair for other firms.

There are also problems in the App-Store. Google stops other makers there. They must not show low prices.

The EU has a new rule. The name is Gesetz über digitale Märkte. This rule wants fair Wettbewerb.

Google does not like the fine. The firm says: Our services get worse now. Google wants to go to court.

Donald Trump is angry about the fine. He is the boss of the USA. He wants high taxes on goods from the EU.
