The EU is preparing to fine Google under the Digital Markets Act for unfair Search self-preferencing and Play Store anti-steering practices, with penalties potentially reaching hundreds of millions of euros. This follows an earlier €4.1 billion fine upheld by Europe's top court for Android antitrust violations.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

If you sell search, app distribution or ad services in Europe, Google's Play Store and Search preferences just became illegal — and the fines prove the EU will enforce it. Your product can now displace Google's own without regulatory risk.
