Although the Google antitrust settlement in Europe
isn’t final it appears we’re in the final minutes of the final act.
There still may be a surprise or two in store but we mostly know how
this story is going to end.
Now it appears the Google antitrust drama is shifting to India, where an antitrust investigation against the company is ongoing.
According to a report in the Times of India, that country’s competition authority, the Competition Commission of India (CCI), has
the power to impose a fine of up 10 percent annual revenues, averaged
over a three year period. That could mean up to $5 billion in Google’s
case if competition “norms” are determined to have been violated.
