The British newspaper The Sunday Telegraph reports that Google faces a record antitrust fine from the European Commission of around 3 billion euros, or 3.4 billion U.S. dollars. 

That's for allegedly promoting its shopping service in Internet searches at the expense of rival services in a case that dates back to late 2010. The Telegraph cites sources close to the case as saying officials planned to announce the fine as early as next month but that the bill has not yet been finalized. The newspaper also reports that Google will also be banned from continuing to manipulate search results to favour itself. The Commission and Google both declined to comment on the report.
