The Verge: A Google breakup is on the table, say DOJ lawyers

Adam Kovacevich /
@adamkovac: It's very clear that DOJ is starting broad, throwing out trial balloons to please the Google haters marching through DOJ's doors with far-out remedy ideas. If DOJ doesn't narrow their list, Judge Mehta will prob narrow it for them. https://x.com/... @khushitavasant: Google ought to be broken up, its businesses spun off, DOJ + several states just told a DC court in a high-level remedy framework as part of the search #monopoly suit. Technically, DOJ is “considering” it but I doubt DOJ will make U-turns in a final proposal in March 2025. [image] @wkasel: The @USDOJ_Intl case against @Google just dropped - with a framework for how they might approach this, and it's a 💣. Here is the link: https://storage.courtlistener.com/ ... 🧵.

Jason Kint /
@jason_kint: There it is. Confirmation directly from the Department of Justice that divestiture of Chrome, Android and/or Play are all on the table as remedies to Google's antitrust abuses. US DOJ's remedies framework just posted. Their final proposal is due Nov 20th. /1 [image]

Adam Kovacevich /
@adamkovac: Most egregiously, DOJ proposes that Google share its search query data and algorithms - its secret sauce, spent decades refining - with rival search engines. This is exactly the kind of “duty to deal” idea that Judge Mehta already rejected. [image] @balancecrafting: DOJ wisely anticipates attempted noncompliance, so seeks an order to not destroy evidence, and to not retaliate against rivals - or anyone involved in remedies (presumably including whistleblower employees) Also good ban on Google owning competitors [image]

Adam Kovacevich /
@adamkovac: DOJ's Google antitrust remedy proposal is out - and as expected, DOJ chose the “remedy spaghetti” against the wall strategy. It floated a dozen remedies, many of which having nothing to do with Judge Mehta's ruling in the case.

Jason Kint /
@jason_kint: lol. The Chamber of Google has weighed in on the remedies framework. This actually means DOJ hit the mark. ps it's absurd to suggest the list has “nothing to do with the ruling.” [image]

Adam Kovacevich /
@adamkovac: The big headline is DOJ teasing “structural remedies” (i.e. breakup) for Chrome, Play, and Android. But the DOJ never charged Chrome's use of Google search default as monopolizing behavior. And Android aspects of ruling can be dealt with by behavioral/contractual remedies. [image]
