€890 million fine for Google, Google's invisible wall! | PixelUnion - Free your photos from American tech platforms
Google has again been fined hundreds of millions by the European Commission for breaching the Digital Markets Act. What does 'self-preferencing' mean for creators and their images?

"By introducing an AI image generator as a Google Earth feature, Google risked undermining public trust in Google Earth as a reliable reference for providing authentic imagery of the real world, Ess said. It could have also handed an additional excuse to government officials or anyone who wants to deny genuine satellite photos by claiming they were modified or generated entirely by AI tools."

Bei einem Nettogewinn 2025 von Alphabet/Google mit rund 132,2 Milliarden US-Dollar, dann entsprechen 890 Millionen Euro ungefähr 0,7 % davon.

Google's triple position as buyer agent, seller agent, and auction house manager for probably a majority of search ads has been ruled an illegal monopoly...

40 Milliarden Dollar Strafe für Google – wenn die Kommission sich diesmal traut. Beim letzten Mal reichte ein Anruf aus Washington, um die Sache auf Eis zu legen. "Nicht ewig warten", heißt es jetzt aus Brüssel. Nun ja, ewig ist relativ. Laut Achim Sawall (#Golem). #DMA #Google

Google reports 18% rise in total emissions amidst AI expansion
Google has published its annual environmental report, unveiling that its absolute emissions across all scopes rose by 18% last year as it continued to expand the deployment of energy-intensive artificial intelligence (AI) technology.

Let me say something fun about the #Polish language.
When you name the letters of the alphabet, "G" is pronounced "gye" (with "g" pronounced similarly to "good", not "George").
"Gie" also exists as a euphemism for "gówno", or shit. It has the same pronunciation, it's derived from the letter "g" in that word.
Well, we were prepared for #Google.

Oh now this is the best tech news I have heard for awhile…. Is a Mega-Enron situation about to happen to a bunch of the Magnificient Seven?
“Like Enron, they’re using special purpose vehicles, or off-balance sheet arrangements such as legally distinct subsidiaries, as a way to make their financial reporting look healthier than it actually is — often a glaring sign that something is deeply amiss behind the scenes.”
Also… is this why Apple effectively outsourced its AI, rather than build its own. If so, it could be the smartest tech hedge of the century.
