Google Faces Unprecedented Antitrust Double Blow
Tap title to read story
A federal judge ruled that Google illegally monopolized online advertising technology, marking a significant antitrust victory for the government. This follows an August ruling finding Google engaged in anticompetitive practices to maintain its search dominance. Experts note this is unprecedented, with two major antitrust wins against a single company in such a short period. Google has historically weathered antitrust scrutiny with time and shifting political landscapes working in its favor, but these rulings raise the stakes considerably.
