U.S. regulators asked a federal judge on Nov. 20 to break up Google, accusing the tech giant of abusing its monopoly in the search engine and search advertising markets for more than a decade.
The Department of Justice (DOJ), alongside 38 states and territories, outlined its proposed remedy in a 23-page court filing late on Nov. 20. The filing follows a federal court ruling that found Google unlawfully maintained its dominance through anti-competitive practices.
