KEY POINTS

  • The Department of Justice late Tuesday indicated that it was considering a possible breakup of Google as an antitrust remedy.
  • The DOJ said it was “considering behavioral and structural remedies that would prevent Google from using products such as Chrome, Play, and Android to advantage Google search.”
  • The judge has yet to decide on the remedies, and Google will likely appeal, drawing out the process potentially for years.

    Lets call back to classics and do it to AT&T again, too.

      There should just be a law that just periodically breaks up AT&T every few years.

        There should just be a law that just periodically breaks up AT&T all companies every few years.

        Given capitalisms inevitable march towards monopoly, this would just be good business.

      AT&T classic or new AT&T (Verizon, sprint/t-mobile)?
