       The DOJ is challenging Google’s monopoly power in a trial that started on Tuesday. “The outcome of this trial “could determine the future of * artificial intelligence, * search, * newspapers, * antitrust law, and * innovation.”* “It will set precedent for monopolization cases in a lot of other industries.”Follow daily coverage of the trial at:https://www.bigtechontrial.com#Antitrust #Google #MattStoller

       The trial “is as much about how the public and members of Congress understand the trial as it is the legal outcomes themselves.”“In other words, this trial isn’t just important because of the potential outcome, but also because the public and lawmakers are paying close attention.  We’re going to learn a lot about how the internet itself was shaped, advertising, the coercion and power plays…, …deals between Google & Apple to divide up the world…."#Antitrust #GoogleTrial #BigTech

       “So regardless of the final verdict, the facts that come out at trial will help shape the future direction our elected leaders and judges take in addressing our increasingly monopolistic order. The point is, there’s a lot of bullshit in politics, but this trial is the big one, where the debates over big business that have gone on for years meet the law.”#Antitrust #GoogleTrial #bigtech

       Matt Stoller update on Google trial: "The government has shown pretty clearly that the search giant is paying large sums of money to block rivals from entering the market. In addition, Google’s gotten busted covering up evidence - or as I put it, Google is following the Stringer Bell rule. In addition, in a separate Google trial, a judge tossed the search firm’s dirty tricks attempt to go after the head of the Antitrust Division Jonathan Kanter as biased."#Antitrust #Google #USvGoogle

       Google showed that “consumers, when faced with the choice of Bing, do switch to Google. But the basic narrative of Google as a monopolistic liar is working, and Google’s attempt to show this trial as just the government trying to help Microsoft isn’t resonating. The biggest win for Google is Judge Amit Mehta blocking a public audio feed, so the public just isn’t tuned in.”You can follow daily coverage: https://www.bigtechontrial.com#Antitrust #Google #USvGoogle
