Caption:
Justice Department Moves to Dismantle Google’s 'Illegal Monopoly. US officials are considering breaking up what they call Google's "illegal monopoly" on internet searches. The Justice Department is looking at potential restrictions on Google's products, including Chrome, the Play Store, and Android, following a judge's August ruling that the company violated antitrust laws to maintain its dominance. Proposed measures include stopping Google from paying tech companies, like Apple, to make its search engine the default on new devices. In 2021, Google spent over $26 billion on such deals. The Justice Department stated that fully addressing the issue means ending Google's control over search distribution now and in the future. Google plans to appeal the ruling, calling the filing part of a "long process”.
