The technology giant will fight this week the first of three fines for this issue, which cost the company about US $ 9,000 million.
The antitrust struggle that Google has been fighting for a decade with the European Union will have more ups and downs this week, while the Internet giant fights the first of a trilogy of fines that cost the company about US $ 9,000 million.
The EU General Court in Luxembourg will hold a three-day hearing from February 12 as the Alphabet Inc. unit seeks to eliminate a fine of 2.4 billion euros (US $ 2.6 billion) in 2017 for frustrating the services of Search for smaller purchases.
Lawyers say the judicial clash will help set the stage for more severe measures against US tech giants. led by Margrethe Vestager, Commissioner for Competition in the EU. On the other hand, Apple Inc. is facing its massive retroactive tax order and Amazon.com Inc. is currently under investigation for allegedly favoring its own products over those of third parties on its platform.
EU regulators hope to repeat the 2007 victory against Microsoft Corp., a narrow triumph in a contentious investigation that led the company to resolve another investigation into web browsers. The case of Microsoft emboldened the small team of EU antitrust guards to face companies like Intel Corp. and Qualcomm Inc., and start a process in 2010 on complaints against Google.
