EU Formally Accuses Google of Antitrust Violations
I wouldn't be suspicious until I read ".. fine of 6.4 billion .."<p>What ?<p>Even BP didn't get that big of a fine when they polluted half of the Atlantic Ocean.<p>I don't understand what EU's problem is. If they don't like google and android please ask your tech graduates to create their own.<p>The EU is an funny organization. they are not democratically elected. Their policies is the reason half of EU is bankrupt. The EU should be fined for bankrupting entire generations of young people in Greece and promoting the largest transfer of wealth from poor European nations to rich European nations.<p>Even assuming Google did participate in behaviour that is anti-competitive that market that google dominates was created by google !<p>I like china's approach to this where they forced their countrymen to create powerful competitor to google. The emphasis should be promotion of wealth creation and not redistribution. Why doesn't Europe have its own homegrown search giant ? An EU company would clearly have massive advantage due to the language barrier. The EU should be paying people to create companies to compete with google. Or atleast make it a priority to do so.  What happens when google refuses to pay the fine and starts backtracing or treating the EU market as "not worth it", has the EU though about how it will effect consumers ?
