Thats nothing, they made billions and get hit with a negligible amount.. these fines should hit hard because for these corporations, it makes more sense to break the law and pay the fines
“[](https://www.statista.com/statistics/267606/quarterly-revenue-of-google/?srsltid=AfmBOorjwWJYpsou9iCfCH0SgX6-PlRs2XtagJZIvh2uENKf3wd_jFrU#statisticContainer)In the third quarter of 2025, Google’s revenue amounted to over 102.21 billion U.S. dollars, up from the 87.86 billion U.S. dollars registered in the same quarter a year prior. ”
I guess maybe we can make a dent after 250 years of abuse.
This Headline is missing word “only”.
Hey, by building your monopoly, you have made effectively hundreds of billions! As a punishment, you need to give us a dollar or so.
Yes!
The problem is that this isn’t even a real penalty for them. As long as breaking the rules is cheaper than following them, nothing is gonna change
That’s not a fine. That’s a subscription fee.
Less 10 years ago we met a French super dynamic and visionary professor who just had received many millions of French startup money to develop the next stage of EU sovereign search engine.
A breakthrough.
It was an app you had to buy and install on your PC that would do locally (badly) what Google was doing in the cloud, since 15 years, for free, without any installation.
The very reason a moronic idea like that monopolizes EU tech money just because you have a nice diploma is the very reason Google is monopolistic. The EU has nothing better to offer than an updated SAP…
Pennies
€465m for decades of unlawful market domination is nothing
Must be a very reputable news site, smack full of viagra, weight loss, and dating ads…
If you can’t beat them sue them
465 million, yeah that will show them.
Unfortunately there is nothing the EU in general, and constituents on their own can do about these big tech monopolies, other than a little slap on the wrist and some pocket money.
Not while Ireland, the Cayman Islands of the union, still is part of it. They can always be relied upon to sink any such initiative.
What a joke, make your own damn search engine then Germany. Not like this is some sort of secret tech.
That’s great for Germany. Now put those €465m at full disposal of elderly and retired people just like only you can do.
Wow. That reminds me of the time I misplaced 2 cents somewhere between the couch cushions.
