EU prepares second big Google fine over advertising

Appeals processes expected to last many years

The EU is preparing to fine global search giant Google with another antitrust penalty over AdSense, its advertising network, with a decision expected in the next few weeks, The Telegraph reports.

It will be the second such fine in less than a year. Google was ordered to pay €2.4bn in June for abusing its internet search monopoly to promote its online shopping service.
