The real stakes of the Google Antitrust Trial
- 1vuio0pswjnm7 3y ago"According to sources on Google's legal team, the defense the company plans to present will rely on the idea that Google's market dominance is the result of offering a superior product." If a company is allowed to operate in a market where competition is all but impossible because it has paid off every OEM, and it's pulling in $160B annually, then of course it is going to have the "superior" product, or at least it should. The government will argue that even with all its resources, and being able to easily outbid any other search provider to be the "default search engine" on every computer, Google is still in decline. Anyone can be the world heavyweight champion as long as they never have to fight a contender.
