The tech giant has been contending with allegations from the Justice Department and state attorneys general that it holds a monopoly over search and advertising markets.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai stood by the company's practice of paying for default search engine status on devices from Apple (NASDAQ:) and other tech platforms, revealing that Google shared 36% of search revenue from these deals with Apple.
Google's defense also pointed to instances where competition influenced market decisions, such as Mozilla's temporary shift from Google to Yahoo in 2014 due to product quality issues, only to return to Google in 2017 following a decline in Yahoo's user experience.
