The Digital Markets Act (DMA) investigation on Google will assess whether it’s “demoting” news outlets and other publisher websites when they include sponsored or commercial material.
Google’s policy restricts publishers from doing business with third-party providers and monetising their websites and content.
If the Commission concludes that Google has breached the DMA, the company could be fined up to 10% of its worldwide turnover and may face further penalties for any ongoing infringement.
Separately, back in March, the Commission’s initial DMA investigations into Google reached a preliminary conclusion that it had breached the rules for self-preferencing on search and anti-steering on its Play app store.
10% of the worldwide annual turnover? Now we're talking! It's useless to fine them what are equivalent to pennies to us. Now we wait for the talk to turn into action.......
