The EU fined Google €890M under the Digital Markets Act for anticompetitive practices in search and Play Store, enforcing structural separation requirements that prevent Google from leveraging its dominant position across services.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Generalist, and 40 sources have reported it between 23 Jul 2026 and 29 Jul 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Google must now wall off search from Play Store — if you build search, discovery, or app distribution tools in Europe, you now have a regulatory mandate forcing Google to use neutral intermediaries instead of its own services. Call your first enterprise customer in the EU this week.
