France Fines Google For 50 Million Euros

Description

According to Reuters, France’s data protection watchdog fined Google for 50 million euros. The French regulator issued the fine for a breach of the European Union's online privacy rules. The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation has been in place since May, but so far, this marks the largest single fine. France's regulatory body said that they fined Google for not sufficiently informing users about how their personal data is handled. But they also said that Google's search engine failed to properly obtain consent from users for displaying personalized ads.
