谷歌因违反欧盟反垄断规定被多次重罚,包括2017年24.2亿欧元罚款和2018年43.4亿欧元罚款。广告服务案是迄今唯一被欧盟法院裁决撤销罚款的案件。
美国互联网巨头谷歌在欧洲“司法战”中受挫,欧盟最高司法机构欧洲法院一名法律总顾问12日发表意见书,就谷歌广告服务案撤销对谷歌罚款的裁决提出异议,建议下级法院欧盟普通法院重新审理案件。
欧洲法院当日公布法律总顾问朱丽安·库考特(Juliane Kokott)发表的意见书。作为欧洲法院审理程序的一部分,意见书虽不具备法律效力,但由于过往欧洲法院的判决大多与意见书一致,其内容备受关注。
谷歌广告服务案牵涉谷歌2003年推出的广告服务“AdSense”,网站运营商、博主等可以通过这一服务展示谷歌广告,进而根据点击量等赚取收入。2019年,欧盟认定从2006年到2016年,谷歌利用排他性条款等限制或禁止“AdSense”用户展示谷歌竞争对手的广告,据此对谷歌处以14.9亿欧元罚款。
2024年,在谷歌上诉后,欧盟普通法院以欧盟未能充分评估谷歌排他性条款造成的影响等理由,裁决撤销对谷歌的罚款。随后欧盟上诉,将官司打到欧洲法院。
对于谷歌与欧盟的“司法缠斗”,意见书称,欧盟无需根据个案逐一评估谷歌排他性条款造成的影响,原则上只需综合评估谷歌排他性条款造成的影响即可。本案欧盟普通法院对评估的要求过高,裁决有误,建议发回欧盟普通法院重新审理。
另一方面,意见书指2016年9月,谷歌废除或修改了“AdSense”排他性条款等,因此欧盟普通法院在重新审理案件时,应考虑谷歌对14.9亿欧元罚金提出的异议并减少罚金。
近年谷歌因违反欧盟反垄断规定被数度重罚,包括2017年因操控网上购物比价搜索结果被欧盟处以24.2亿欧元罚款,2018年因对手机生产商和移动网络运营商“非法设限”被处以43.4亿欧元罚款,而广告服务案是迄今谷歌唯一被欧盟法院裁决撤销罚款的案件。
