DOJ indicates it’s considering Google breakup following monopoly ruling - eviltoast

KEY POINTS

  • The Department of Justice late Tuesday indicated that it was considering a possible breakup of Google as an antitrust remedy.
  • The DOJ said it was “considering behavioral and structural remedies that would prevent Google from using products such as Chrome, Play, and Android to advantage Google search.”
  • The judge has yet to decide on the remedies, and Google will likely appeal, drawing out the process potentially for years.
