This is false. They were asked to:
- Stop tying Google Search and Chrome to the Play Store.
- Permit competing Android versions.
- Stop exclusivity incentives for Google Search.
- Provide genuine room for rival search engines and browsers.
This is separate from the fine and they were given 90 days in 2018 to comply with the above.

- frollogaston 3mo agoDo you mean they were asked in 2018 to comply, but not fined until they refused? I only see things like https://www.reuters.com/article/us-eu-alphabet-inc-antitrust-idUSKCN1MJ2CA/ https://www.reuters.com/article/us-eu-alphabet-inc-antitrust... where they were fined in 2018 for anti-competitive practices going back to 2011, and since then changed behavior while trying to appeal.
