The Court of Justice of the European Union ruled to uphold its fine against Google over alleged anti-competition practices

The EU's highest court has thrown out an appeal by Google against a record antitrust fine. The tech giant had argued that the bloc was unfairly penalizing innovation. The European Court of Justice on Thursday dismissed Google's appeal against a record fine imposed by EU antitrust regulators eight years ago for using its Android operating system to block rivals, in a ruling likely to boost Europe's crackdown on Big Tech.
