You're right, I spoke too freely and should have said legal methods of competition. What you're missing from your quote though is 'unreasonable'. Many types of restraint of trade, like exclusive business arrangements, are reasonable until the parties are at or near monopoly status. Or take price fixing that only works when the parties fixing the prices form a monopoly around the good. To tie this back to Google, just being declared a monopoly will now change how they do business. Deals they made before are no longer on the table and would be deemed unfair because Google is a monopoly.
