Exactly. The point of an antitrust trial is not to transfer power and resources to competitors. It's to transfer power and resources to the voting public.
As guilty as Microsoft might be, it's rich of Microsoft with its monopolies (without which a lot of its subpar products like outlook and Teams and Edge would go poof) to be abdicating Google here.
- robertlagrant 3y agoIt's not about transferring resources. It's about making sure there's enough competition. Ironically, there is more and more search competition appearing. Bing isn't great, but other things are.
- jfoster 3y agoCould you please elaborate on what the other things are?
- ehecatl42 3y agoHave a play with mojeek.com. Also heard good things about kagi, that is paid, though, I believe.
- omnimus 3y agoProbably Kagi… maybe chatgpt
- robertlagrant 3y agoI use DDG exclusively and have done for years.
- JopV 3y agoDuckDuckGo is just a proxy for Bing, the results are the same. Kagi and Brave are actual competitors.
- robertlagrant 3y agoWe're talking about competitors to Google. Why doesn't DDG count as a competitor to Google?

- palata 3y agoI have used DDG for years, before switching to Kagi a year ago. Really happy with Kagi. I am happy to pay to show that there is a market for paid services.
