The European Commission has informed Google that it has broken EU antitrust rules, as it 'abused its dominant position by imposing restrictions on Android device manufacturers and mobile network operators.' Commissioner Margrethe Vestager claims: 'A competitive mobile internet sector is increasingly important for consumers and businesses in Europe. Based on our investigation thus far, we believe that Google's behaviour denies consumers a wider choice of mobile apps and services and stands in the way of innovation by other players.'
