Good news for the European Commission's crusade against Google's monopolistic practices in Europe. The General Court of the European Union on Wednesday upheld the €2.4 billion penalty that Brussels imposed on the tech giant in 2017. The decision refers to the fine for abuse of a dominant position, because Margrethe Vestager's competition department found that the search engine systematically favoured the search pages of its price comparator, Google Shopping, ahead of other rival shoppers. Google can appeal the decision within the next two months.
