A federal judge has labeled Google as an abusive monopolist for a second time in under a year, this time related to its online marketing technology. The ruling, by U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema in Virginia, follows an earlier decision on Google's search engine dominance. Both rulings are the result of antitrust actions initiated by the U.S. Justice Department during different presidential administrations, aiming to dismantle Google's significant market power. Google plans to appeal these decisions while also exploring advances in artificial intelligence. A penalty phase is expected soon.
