DOJ and Google make closing arguments in landmark adtech antitrust trial
Briefly

Judge Brinkema's questioning suggested skepticism regarding Google's claims of competition and market growth, particularly when it comes to the open web display ads.
Roger Alford pointed out, 'Google used the broadest possible market definition and then argued that output was increasing,' indicating the difficulties Google had in defending its monopoly status.
Megan Gray highlighted a critical moment in the trial, stating, 'It just kind of encapsulated the whole Google approach to the market,' indicating the lack of persuasiveness in Google's defense.
The DOJ's lawyers employed literary references to illustrate the disparity between Google's portrayal of the ad industry and the experiences of publishers facing challenges.
