US Judge Rules Against Breaking Up Google's Ad Tech Business
A U.S. judge has ruled against the government's bid to force Google to sell its digital advertising technology business. The lawsuit, filed by the Justice Department, alleged that Google held a monopoly over the digital advertising market by controlling multiple aspects of the transaction process. The judge's decision means Google will not be compelled to divest its ad tech operations. The reasoning behind the ruling was not immediately made public. This outcome represents a significant legal victory for Google in an antitrust case.
