Google has appealed two European Union mandates under the Digital Markets Act (DMA). The orders would require the company to give rival AI services greater access to Android and share search data with competing search engines.
Google argues that complying would pose significant privacy and security risks. It says sharing sensitive personal search histories could threaten user privacy and that changes to Android could weaken device security.
The deadline for sharing search data is January 2027. The deadline for making the Android changes is July 2027.
The appeals reflect tensions between major technology companies and EU regulators over the DMA’s scope. Google could face fines of up to 10% of its global annual revenue for non-compliance. The European Commission says it will defend its decisions in court.
