Google is defending one of the EU's demands to force it to open up the Android operating system to artificial intelligence competitors and provide search data to competitors. The Alphabet subsidiary said on Tuesday that it has appealed the relevant decision of the European Commission to the EU General Court of Justice in Luxembourg based on the “Digital Market Act” on the grounds that the requirement would damage user safety. Oliver Bethel, Google's senior director of competition affairs, said, “Users submit their most intimate questions during searches, from health concerns to personal relationships. Forcing us to share this personal inquiry data without adequate protections will irrevocably damage users' privacy.” Up to now, most rulings relating to the EU Digital Market Act have been appealed by large technology companies, and companies want to clarify the application boundaries of the Act. This regulation fined Google 1 billion euros in another case. The “Digital Market Act” has also triggered dissatisfaction with the US Trump administration. The US side believes that the bill discriminates against American companies.
