Google loses legal fight over 4.1 billion-euro EU antitrust fine

The European Commission's top court has upheld Google's fine of around 4.1 billion euros ($4.67 billion) over alleged anti-competitive practices.

In 2018, the European Commission slapped Google with the record-breaking penalty on the grounds that it abused Android's mobile dominance to give unfair advantage to its own apps via pre-installation deals with smartphone makers.

Google has been appealing the ruling through the EU court system. CNBC has reached out to Google for comment.
