European Union Fines Google's Parent Company €890 Million

The European Union fined Alphabet, Google's parent company, €890 million for two rule violations. Google was charged €460 million for pushing its own shopping, hotel, and flight results above competitors' in search, and €430 million for stopping app makers from telling users about cheaper payment options outside its app store. Google has 60 days to change these practices or face further fines.
