CNN
France's antitrust regulator has fined Google nearly $600 million and given the company two months to come up with proposals on how to pay publishers for their content or face more punishment.
The regulator said in a statement on Tuesday that Google (GOOGL) had disregarded several injunctions related to the tech company's negotiations with French news publishers. Google was fined €500 million ($592 million) over its failure to comply. If the search giant does not present compensation offers to publishers within the next two months, it faces additional penalties of up to €900,000 ($1.1 million) per day.More Related News
