“So far, none of our concerns have been addressed,” the Google spokeswoman, Jenn Crider, said in the statement on Thursday. She did not say what the company planned to do about the law and declined to comment further on the record.

Similar battles have been playing out for years in other countries.

In the European Union, countries have been trying to enforce a copyright directive that the bloc adopted in 2019 to force Google, Facebook and other platforms to compensate news organizations for their content.

In Australia, Parliament passed a law in 2021 that forces Google and Facebook to pay for news content that appears on their platforms. At the time, Google appeared to effectively capitulate by announcing a three-year global agreement with Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp to pay for the publisher’s news content. Facebook took the opposite tack, saying that it would immediately restrict people and publishers from sharing or viewing news links in Australia.

And in the United States, the Justice Department and a group of eight states sued Google in January, accusing the company of illegally abusing its monopoly over the technology that powers online advertising. The lawsuit was the department’s first antitrust lawsuit against a tech giant under President Biden.

California is also threatening to put legal pressure on tech companies. This month, the State Assembly voted to advance a bill to the State Senate that would tax tech companies for distributing news articles. Meta said in response that it would be “forced” to remove news from Facebook and Instagram if the bill became law.
