The EU fines Google €890m in its first DMA penalties

The European Commission fined Google €890m on 23 July across two Digital Markets Act decisions: €460m for self-preferencing its shopping, hotels, transport, and sports services in Search, and €430m for blocking Play developers from steering users to cheaper channels. Google has 60 days to comply or faces periodic penalties of up to 5% of worldwide turnover, and is weighing an appeal, while the US President criticised the decision as unjustified.

France's competition authority weighs in on agentic commerce.

The Autorité de la concurrence has published an opinion on the competition implications of AI agents and agentic commerce, warning that agents could become the next major gateway to the digital economy. It recommends enforcing existing rules, including the AI Act, keeping AI distribution open, and promoting interoperability and data portability rather than drafting regulations.
