Google Convicted as a Monopolist: A Brief Overview

Google has been convicted as a monopolist by the US Department of Justice. The case started in 2020, with the government accusing Google of violating US antitrust law. The judge agreed with the government, making Google officially a monopolist. The company got into trouble due to its exclusivity deals, such as requiring its search engine to be the default on Android devices. The penalty for this conviction is yet to be determined. Other big tech companies like Apple, Amazon, and Meta are also facing active antitrust cases.
