Google在歐洲遭遇驚天大罰款

Google will be hit with a record fine for abusing its monopoly over internet search on Tuesday, seven years after the EU began investigating the technology giant.

在歐盟對科技巨頭谷歌展開調查的七年之後，谷歌將於週二因其在網絡搜索行業的壟斷行爲而遭到創紀錄的罰款。

The European Commission plans to announce its decision into the long-running case on Tuesday morning.

歐盟委員會計劃於週二上午宣佈對這起存在已久的案件的判決。

The commission will impose the record fine for breaking EU competition law, saying Google used its dominant search engine to unfairly promote the Google Shopping service at the expense of smaller price-comparison websites.

歐盟委員會表示，谷歌利用其強大的搜索引擎進行不公平的購物服務推廣活動，使較小規模的比價網站遭受損害。該委員會將以谷歌違反歐盟競爭法爲由對其處以創紀錄的罰款。
