The US Supreme Court has ruled food giants Nestlé USA and Cargill can't be sued for child slavery on African farms from where they buy their cocoa. Six African men alleged that they were trafficked from Mali and forced to work on cocoa farms in Ivory Coast. The group say both companies perpetuated that slave trade to keep cocoa prices low. The court ruled 8-1 that the group had no standing because the abuse happened outside the US. #news

Google fined €220m in France over advertising abuse Technology giant Google has been fined €220m (£189m) by French authorities for abusing its advertising power. France's competition watchdog said Google has been promoting its own online advertising services to the detriment of rivals. It found that Google's ad management platform for large publishers, Google Ad Manager, favoured the company's own online ad marketplace, Google AdX. Google said it would make changes to its advertising business. The US tech giant has agreed to make it easier for publishers to use its data and tools.
