IN A BIG WIN, GOOGLE AVOIDS A BREAKUP OF ITS AD TECH BUSINESS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

A federal judge has ruled that Google must make changes to its advertising business but will not have to break it up. The ruling will ensure that Google's power over the internet will remain largely unchanged. Google has been ordered to change its business practices to benefit competitors, but no specific instructions have been provided. The ruling is another sign that the federal government's attempts to rein in the power of big tech have faltered.
