Long live Google’s monopoly

New York Google now joins Microsoft.By the same legal standard, Alphabet’s online search As with the software developer in 2001, colossus is a monopolist. It may face the same fate.
A U.S. court deemed Google illegally dominating the market on Monday, long after becoming a verb. Judge Amit Mehta’s 276-page ruling opens new tab and follows competition law and customary reasoning. The $2 trillion company’s technology is hard to decipher, so the effects may be limited.
For Jonathan Kanter, the U.S. Department of Justice antitrust official, and Lina Khan, the Federal Trade Commission antitrust chief, the victory is noteworthy regardless of the remedies. Both have launched a variety of lawsuits against computer firms, and this case will send a message to other courts, including one against Google’s ad-tech business.

Microsoft was crucial. That ruling, which averted a separation but upheld lawbreaking, inspired Mehta. He cut elements of the DOJ’s and state lawyers’ arguments, restricting Google’s dominance.
Mehta also softens the painful conclusion that Google is the “highest quality search engine.” Resources matter. Google projected that Apple would spend $20 billion to construct and billions more to manage a similar product. The main goal is ubiquity. The ruling states that Google paid $20 billion to be iPhone buyers’ default option in 2022.
On Monday, a U.S. judge found Google guilty of violating antitrust law by spending billions to become the world’s default search engine.

 

Still, $3 trillion Microsoft’s Bing search service has made little progress. It failed to persuade Google to leave the Apple arrangement, despite promising 100% revenue sharing.
This unmovable advantage must be addressed. Mehta cited earlier rulings encouraging courts to avoid complex solutions that make judges “central planners.”
Keeping things simple may mean preventing Google from accepting exclusivity arrangements or divesting. The fundamental issue is that search is the main business, making extraction difficult. Thus, Google’s power will be as hard to restrict as Microsoft’s.
