The 'Most Important Case About the Internet Since the Internet was Invented' Enters Its Final Phase | KQED
Briefly

Google is facing a landmark antitrust case, with a judge declaring the company a monopolist. As the Department of Justice seeks remedies for Google’s monopolistic practices, discussions include potentially forcing Google to sell its Chrome browser and eliminating default search engine agreements. Critics argue the search engine experience has deteriorated, with increased ads and commercialization. The ongoing trial emphasizes the need for regulatory actions to ensure fair competition, especially given Google’s historic dominance since its inception as a search project at Stanford University.

Judge Mehta ruled that Google is a monopolist, with evidence showing the search results now feature more ads and routing to Google products.
