If forced to breaking up Google should stop giving free services in EU including OS, Browser, Map, Search and any other free service. And charge EU users for each of these services which are top or only one in respective categories. These services are free due to Ad business which is best and can make money to fund other free services. Let EU pay for crappy services built by their own mediocre companies like Nokia which can't compete in market so force regulations.

What is EU doing to to curb European monopolies ? Oh wait there are not many.... cause they can't innovate and compete. Easy to be complain than build something to compete.

Making shit up, and getting angry about it is the internet way I guess.

European companies are also going to be regulated.

They don’t have many monopolies because they have a completely different way of approaching business and their position in society. Also when it happens, they get split apart way way before you hear about it.

It's going to be good for EU in the long-term TBH. Please charge $$ for EU users.
