Google was fined $ 5 billion by EU back in 2018 to force OEM to use the search engine on the phone.
The court case was still ongoing and the technology giant recently admitted that he paid a smartphone maker to install Google search on their devices.
Google said in his explanation that this step was not to kill Android competition but to seize market share from Apple.
But the third major technology company has been involved in the case of a court, slightly indirectly, and the cause may be embarrassing after the evidence delivered by Google lawyers in the Luxembourg court this week, according to the Bloomberg report.
The company is none other than Microsoft and the cause is a search engine, Bing.
According to the proof, Google is reported to argue that “Google” is the most popular search term on Bing “so far” because compared to other search engines, users choose Google from their own will and not because they are forced.
“Google’s market share is generally consistent with consumer surveys that indicate that 95% of users prefer Google to rival search engines,” Defense said.
This antitrust case is not the only problem faced by Google.
The company has also been demanded by 36 US states for misusing control of its own play store.
Also, the presence of Google Assistant on Android phones is also questioned by the EU Commission, which can cause more problems for Google in the future.
