French regulators fine Google $272 million in dispute with news publishers & failure to comply with some commitments it made in a negotiating framework. 🔗 https://www.8newsnow.com/news/tech-news/ap-technology/ap-french-regulators-fine-google-272-million-in-dispute-with-news-publishers/ #tech
French people are lazy. ..
The entire world, though so much out of the EU, attempt to pass legislation, fine, and sue big tech; usually with govts working against the industries’ desires they think they’re protecting. It’s usually a contrived contradiction of “We want you to show our links in Google Search, but don’t you dare use the <title> we’ve provided without giving us 1 billion dollars because that’s our content.”
Imagine thinking French news was worth $272 million. 😂
Ikr!
