After Play Store and YouTube, Google Search too is in the dock in Australia
Alphabet Inc.’s Google has agreed to pay A$55 million ($35.8 million) fine in Australia for paying the country’s two largest telecom firms to pre-install its search application on Android phones.
The operator of the world’s largest search engine struck deals with Telstra and Optus to share with them advertising revenue generated from Google Search on Android devices between late 2019 and early 2021, according to Australian Competition and Consumer Commission on Monday.
