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.

GOOD. But still basically chump change if it's spread out over years.

At least they have to pay it this time. Now these kinds of fines should be yearly instead of spread out over eight years like this...

It should just be all at once, with a 3 month deadline.
