Google has faced its share of problems lately, but one thing it doesn't have to worry about: The search giant is still bringing in gobs of money.

Over the past few weeks, Alphabet, Google's parent company, has suffered through a litany of troubles. Last week, the European Commission's executive arm slapped a record-breaking $5 billion fine on Google for what it says are anticompetitive practices surrounding the Android mobile operating system. That's on top of Google employees' pushing back against the company's role in developing artificial intelligence technology for use by the US military. The company also had to deal with blowback over third-party Gmail app makers' ability to read your inbox.
