Intel Corp. has won a significant legal battle against the European Union, as the EU’s Court of Justice ruled in its favor in a €1.06 billion antitrust case.

The court found that EU regulators did not have enough evidence to support their claims that Intel engaged in illegal rebate practices with PC manufacturers. This ruling is a turning point in a long-standing dispute that previously resulted in one of the largest antitrust fines imposed by the EU. It highlights the difficulties faced by regulators in proving allegations of anti-competitive behavior in the technology sector.

Intel's victory is expected to impact future antitrust cases in the EU, particularly those involving major technology companies.
