EU court rules Google must pay a 2.4bn fine for abusing the market dominance of its shopping comparison service.

The tech giant had appealed against the fine, which was originally levied by the European Commission in 2017 .

It was at the time the largest penalty the Commission had ever imposed - though it has since been supplanted by a 4.3bn fine.
