HOW GOOGLE TRIED TO UNRAVEL THE DOJ'S AD TECH CASE
Summary from the TLDR newsletter
The Department of Justice has just wrapped up a trial where it argued that Google has created illegal monopolies in the ad tech market. Google has a variety of defenses, ranging from Supreme Court precedent to security concerns. One of its biggest arguments was that the agency doesn't understand advertising and that it was slicing up the market in a way that doesn't make sense. Google also claims the agency is ignoring Google's biggest advertising competition, social media. The trial will resume for closing arguments on November 25.
