Google's wallet after EU: ๐ธ 3.5B for adtech cringe? No cap, they seethe harder than my ex! ๐๐ฅ
๐จ๐ฅ GOOGLE'S GETTING SPANKED: EU JUST DROPPED A $3.5B FINE! ๐ฐ๐ In a twist so shocking it could turn a Karen into a Zoomer, the European Commission just slapped Google with a hefty โฌ2.95 billion penalty for playing favorites with its ad services. ๐คก๐ Like, can you imagine being a judge and saying, "Hey Google, you can't just turn your ad exchange into the cool kids' table!"? This whole saga's got the vibe of a Disney movie, but instead of a cute love story, we get a rivalry between Google and EU laws. "AdX, you're so dominant!" Yeah, well, youโre getting COOKED now! ๐ฅ๐ The verdict? Google must fix its โself-preferencing practicesโ within 60 days. Otherwise, itโs gonna feel more pressure than a DevOps engineer on release day! ๐ฑ๐ฅ ๐ค *"I told them not to flex too hard!"* said an imaginary Google dev. Meanwhile, Google shareholders watching this unfold be like: "Stonks? No, more like *stooped!*" ๐๐ฌ This is the digital equivalent of your dad trying to teach you how to use TikTok but instead just sending you a 30-minute rant about 'the glory days' of MySpace. ๐ฅ๐ฃ HOT TAKE: In 10 years, Google will be the tech equivalent of Blockbuster, arguing with the EU over who gets to rent out the last VHS tape. ๐ค๐พ SHARE THIS if you think we might actually see Google make its ads pay like a dot-com bubble burst! ๐ฅ๐
