DOJ urges DC Circuit to beef up remedies in Google monopoly ruling

The Justice Department urged the D.C. Circuit to affirm a judge's finding of Google's illegal monopoly over internet search, approve data-sharing remedies, and reconsider the denial of a ban on Google's large payments to distributors like Apple. The government seeks to strengthen competition by preventing Google from using monopoly profits to stifle rivals, particularly in emerging generative artificial intelligence markets.
