The European Union threatens Microsoft with huge fines

The European Union Anti-Monopoly Commission said last Thursday that Microsoft would face serious penalties for not providing information and documents about the operation of Windows server versions that would help third-party developers to create their own Windows-based products.

Previously, Microsoft provided about 1,500 pages of documentation, but the EU executive committee rejected this data. Now the company has 4 weeks to rectify the situation, otherwise the sanctions will be very tough: for each day of “idle” Microsoft will have to pay about? 3 million.
