Tech giant Google will have to pay a penalty of €2.4 billion, equivalent to ₹26,000 crore after the European Court of Justice (ECJ) recently found it guilty of abusing market power, reported Fortune India. The September order decreed that Google exercised dominance and favoured its shopping services over those of its competitors. This comes as a setback for the tech major and good news for UK entrepreneurs Shivaun and Adam Raff, whose price comparison website Foundem bore the brunt of biased search algorithms.
