Am I crazy or are these remedies a little arbitrary? Microsoft used monopoly power to suppress Netscape, in response we: split Windows off from Office? Google pays companies to make their search engine the default, in response we: split chrome and google? Split Android and google?
There was no consumer harm. We don't need equal outcomes for companies. If Google were truly a monopoly, there would be no need to innovate. If all other competitors are locked out, Google could fire all engineers to collect way more money. I suppose the government's remedy is for Google to stop innovating because their search engine is too good. Let the competition catch up, is that the remedy?
Your argument rests on googles being good what if it isn’t so effective and useful or innovative in search. Google isn’t all that good in the other ways like UA-cam would probably be better as separate company. Edit: gen ai’s success is proof that google hasn’t been innovating past page 1 lol
@@zacharyrichard2764 Why would UA-cam being a separate company be better? I like that Google News and Search adjusts recommendations based on what I like to watch on UA-cam. It makes search, news and Gemini more useful to me. The judgement/ruling had nothing to do with UA-cam. The government didn't like Google paying Apple $20b/year to be the default search engine on an iPhone.

Opening antique internet-era sounds was a jump scare 😂

Microsoft the monopoly that got away with it.
I preferred Netscape far superior to Internet Explorer
If I could remember my AOL password I'd have 2 different verified accounts.
There still are AOL email accounts around 😊
Google sucks now, hope something changes
'Bout time.

Wow. You’re really high on that supply. Actually there always is a cost to stifled competition. You should learn a little about free markets.
