  • India’s competition watchdog has fined Google ~$162 million for anticompetitive Android practices.
  • The commission said Google must stop forcing OEMs to pre-install apps.
  • It also said Google should allow users to choose their search engine upon startup.

The European Union fined Google a massive ~$4.3 billion back in 2018 over anticompetitive Android practices. Now, India’s competition watchdog has fined Google ~$162 million for the same violations.
