Google's Antitrust Ruling and Market Dominance

A recent federal ruling highlighted Google's monopoly in search and online advertising, revealing the extent of its competitive practices. The judge's ruling pointed to significant financial arrangements made by Google to secure its position as the default search engine on major devices, paying billions to companies like Samsung and Apple. This ruling, which cited the violation of the Sherman Act, illustrates how Google has maintained its dominance through financial incentives rather than superior service. The implications of this ruling could be far-reaching, threatening Google's current business model that heavily relies on search revenue.
