"This case is about two different versions of reality," DOJ lawyer Julia Tarver Wood said, highlighting the contrasting arguments between the DOJ and Google regarding ad tech and monopoly claims.
"Google is once, twice, three times a monopolist," stated DOJ lawyer Aaron Teitelbaum, emphasizing the government’s position that Google controls all three critical segments of the ad tech market.
Google maintains that it competes strongly in a broader two-sided market that includes various platforms like apps and social media, countering monopoly claims by arguing its vast competition from firms like Microsoft and Meta.
Karen Dunn, representing Google, warned that siding against Google risks overturning precedent set by the Supreme Court, doing so would essentially force Google to accommodate its competitors.
