Google also contends that the DOJ’s case extends beyond the boundaries of antitrust law, targeting legitimate business practices and product improvements.
According to Google, the government’s case is inherently flawed, as it attacks lawful business decisions and customer-centric product enhancements.
The company asserts that its actions are in line with industry standards and benefit its customers, rather than stifling competition or harming the market.
Google is confident in its defense, and the DOJ is determined to hold the tech giant accountable for what it perceives as anticompetitive behavior.
With billions of dollars and the future of digital advertising at stake, the battle lines have been drawn, and the resolution of this high-stakes conflict will shape the landscape of the tech industry for years to come.
