Google's search monopoly has been ruled illegal

The US court ruled that Google violated the rules of fair competition by occupying a monopoly in the field of internet search. The decision is a major blow to Alphabet, which owns Google, and could change the way tech companies do business.

In 2020, the US Department of Justice sued Google for controlling approximately 90% of the online search market. This is one of many lawsuits against large IT companies.
