Listers,

Would love to hear out on how this will shape the landscape going forward... But this is some amazing development, especially when it relates to a force that dominates the World Wide Web.

Google faces a record anti-trust penalty of about 3 BILLION Euros (US$3.4 Billion) from the European Commission in the coming days, according to reports.

After 7-years of the investigation, the European Commission filed anti-trust charges against Google last year for violating antitrust laws.
