DOJ Considers Google, Alphabet Breakup After Judge Mehta's Ruling
Oct 9, 2024, 02:22 AM
The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has informed a federal judge that it is considering recommending a breakup of Google's operations as a remedy for its monopolization of the online search market. This historic antitrust move could involve forcing Google to sell off parts of its operations and breaking its exclusive agreements with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and browsers. The DOJ's proposed remedies aim to alleviate the harm caused by Google's dominance in the search market and reshape internet search practices. This follows a ruling by Judge Amit Mehta that found Google maintained an illegal monopoly. The breakup may also involve Google’s parent company, Alphabet, and include measures such as sharing search data.
