Google was fined $660,000 in France over unfair competitive practices with Google Maps.
The AFP has the crazy news:
Since Google is offering their mapping service for free, as does Bing Maps, Ask Maps, Yahoo Maps, MapQuest and so on – but because Google is doing it, they have to pay $660,000 in damages.
What am I missing? Is it just that France just really hates Google?
