Brussels Fines Alibaba's AliExpress a Record 550 Million Euros
The European Commission fined Alibaba's AliExpress 550 million euros, its largest Digital Services Act penalty yet, for failing to stop counterfeit and unsafe products from spreading across the platform. The fine lands as Alibaba's Qwen team races Moonshot's Kimi K3 for AI supremacy and as Brussels ramps up scrutiny of major tech platforms following its Android antitrust win over Google.
