Google Appeals EU Orders, Alphabet Stock Tumbles Amid AI Access Dispute

Alphabet's stock price fell to $337.825 on Tuesday as Google appealed two European Union orders aimed at opening its services to rivals.

The EU's measures would give competing AI assistants access to Android features used by Gemini and let eligible search rivals obtain anonymized query, ranking, click, and view data.

Google says the requirements put privacy and security at risk, while regulators argue that safeguards are in place.

The appeal keeps uncertainty over rival access to Android and search data intact, prolonging a contentious legal fight that pits Google's platform control against EU regulations.
