The European Commission issued binding DMA specification measures to Google on 16 July 2026, requiring Android interoperability for alternative AI assistants and mandatory search data sharing with third-party providers, with privacy safeguards and transparent data access pricing.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of AI Agents and Data Infrastructure.

◆ The Wire takeaway

If you build an AI assistant or search product in Europe, Google just lost exclusive access to Android's feature set and search data—both are now open to you. This is your first enforceable wedge into a market Google had locked for 15 years.
