  1. Quick update from #USvGoogle remedies trial:

    Heather Adkins (Google VP Cybersecurity) testified about the 'very difficult, very dedicated work' & talent it takes to build & maintain Google's security architecture and to protect user data.

    TLDR: The rest of the cybersecurity market provides a subpar service for Google. No news there.

    However...

  2. US v. Google heats up: A Yahoo exec says bidding for Chrome could cost tens of billions—and Yahoo “would be able to pursue it with Apollo.” Major moves in #antitrust, #BigTech, and #search. #USvGoogle #Yahoo #Google #Chrome #Apollo #news #business #tech

  3. Taking a quick break from #USvGoogle search remedies. US govt started strong emphasizing divesture of Chrome, prohibition of payments to distributors, and making a connection between search and Gen AI. Three statements from DOJ worth highlighting, with witnesses forthcoming to back them up:

  4. Missed this place! Back here to share the news that the DOJ's framework of remedies for #USvGoogle (search monopoly) dropped late last night.

    Impressed overall by the confirmation that DOJ is considering a break-up involving most products that entrench Google Search: 1⃣ Chrome 2⃣ Play Store 3⃣ AI-powered access points/features.

  5. O início da segunda semana do julgamento do Google por práticas monopolistas na publicidade digital foi focado na relação do conglomerado com o IAB, principal entidade de adtech.

  8. Ha! Interesting how Google started with the "general search engine market doesn't exist" during the DOJ's arguments, to "we know it's there, but we don't care" now.

    The truth will set you free, they say.

  9. :allthethings: Danny Westneat, who covered US v Microsoft in 1998, writes a spot-on column in the Seattle Times about #Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella's testimony in #USvGoogle ->"Big Tech needs to be challenged, but is Microsoft the right messenger here? To be the one out there calling for needed reforms of the tech oligopoly? (That term, meaning a calcified state of limited competition, was also used by Nadella in court on Monday.)"

  11. CW: Long thread/25

    Well, perhaps that has to do with the judge banning recording and livestreaming and not making transcripts available. Don't worry, he's also locking observers out of his courtroom for hours at a time during closed testimony. Oh, and also? The #DoJ just agreed that it won't post its exhibits from the trial online anymore. You can follow what dribbles of information as are emerging from our famously open court system at #USVGoogle:

  13. #USvGoogle 🇺🇸 Journalists await the judge's decision on treatment of case exhibits while proceedings started behind closed doors - public availability of exhibits is at stake :dumpsterfire:

  14. The US v. Google trial goes back to 2007. Good. It would be nice if it also got into how Google saw Windows Phone as a threat to Android and kneecapped it by refusing to port any of its apps besides Google Search.
