Poland's competition watchdog alleges Google abused its dominant position by not providing media publishers sufficient information to negotiate compensation for their content under new copyright rules, potentially exposing Google to a fine of up to 10% of its turnover. This is part of broader EU regulatory scrutiny on Google's use of third-party content.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Enterprise Software.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You now face tighter regulatory scrutiny in Poland if you rely on publishing platforms for content monetisation; transparency with third-party content owners is a must this week or your contract deals risk regulatory backlash.
