EU concerned over Google threat to economy and security

Postby mrswdk on Wed Mar 20, 2019 6:56 am

Google has now been fined a total of more than 7 billion EUR for consistently working to undermine European business from within Europe:

Google has been hit with a €1.49bn (£1.28bn) from the EU for blocking rival online search advertisers.

Last year, the EU competition authority hit Google with a record €4.34bn fine for using its popular Android mobile operating system to block rivals.

This followed a €2.42bn fine in 2017 for hindering rivals of shopping comparison websites.


Given Google's malicious behaviors against foreign markets, best viewed in the context of its close ties with the American government and security services, Google is officially a national security threat and nations should immediately take steps to block Google from playing any role in their national infrastructure.

They are a monopoly and should be broken up.

This is precisely the reason why Vestager has grown to become one of the most loved politicians on the continent.
