"Landmark antitrust trial: DOJ takes on Google's search dominance"

TL;DR Summary
The United States Justice Department is taking Google to trial, accusing the tech giant of abusing its monopoly power in the search engine business. The case, which is the government's first major monopoly trial in decades, challenges how tech companies amass power and control products used daily. Google, which controls around 90% of the U.S. search engine market, argues that its search product is superior and that users have the option to switch to another search engine. The trial, expected to last three months, could result in fines or a restructuring of the company.
