EU Probes Google: AI & Search Data Access Demanded
27 Jan
Summary
- EU demands Google grant third-party AI equal Android access.
- Google must share anonymized search data with rivals.
- Proceedings aim to ensure fair competition and innovation.

The European Commission has launched proceedings against Google, asserting that the tech giant must comply with the Digital Markets Act (DMA). A key demand is for Google to grant third-party AI services equivalent access to the Android operating system as its proprietary Gemini AI.
The Commission also requires Google to share anonymized ranking, query, click, and view data from Google Search with competing search engines. This measure is intended to empower rivals to optimize their services and present more competitive alternatives.
