> In 2013, the European Commission fined Microsoft for giving preferential treatment to its own browser, Internet Explorer.

I don't understand why Microsoft gets fined, but Google gets a pass when they used their other products to push Chrome to a dominant position.




The EU have in large part shifted their attention to Google (and Facebook) at this point.

Microsoft still takes occasional scruitiny as well, though not nearly as much AFAIR.
