Google has signed the agreements more than 300 European Union news to publish, with more discussion has been going on, the company said. All publishers in Germany and France have signed up to the agreement with a search engine, Google said, but they did not disclose how much they pay for these deals.

In 2019, the European Copyright Directive came into force and culminated in an effort from the European Union to ensure publisher.

The copyright law, which is being rolled out across the region by each country, allows publishers to ask for payment whenever online platforms use their content. The new rules have allowed news outlets to negotiate with web platforms such as Google and Facebook over the reproduction of their content.

In 2021, Google entered an agreement with German publishers to create criteria for payments to publishers with an exemption for hosting small extracts of stories, which can be used free of charge. Google is now expanding the roll-out of these agreements through a web tool to facilitate future deals with publishers.

Google has launched the new tool to make more offers for new publishers, starting in Germany and Hungary and moving to other than EU countries in upcoming months.

The directive allows search engines like Google to link freely and use ‘very short extracts’ of press publishers’ content. The law also creates new rights for publishers when more extended previews of their content are used online without defining what a short extract of a longer preview is.
