A federal judge, Leonie Brinkema, has declared Google a monopolist in the realm of online advertising, stating that the company engaged in illegal practices to maintain its dominance in ad tech. This ruling highlights how Google's exclusionary tactics have not only hindered competition but have also negatively impacted publisher customers and the overall competitive landscape. The implications of this judgment could lead to significant shifts in how online advertising operates and might affect consumers as well.
In addition to depriving rivals of the ability to compete, this exclusionary conduct substantially harmed Google's publisher customers, the competitive process, and, ultimately, consumers of information on the open web.
