A U.S. federal judge announced that Google will face penalties by August 2025 for abusing its monopoly power in the search market.
The ruling comes after a lawsuit found Google maintained its dominance by paying billions to companies like Apple, Samsung, and Mozilla to be their default search engine.
Judge Amit P. Mehta ruled that Google violated Article 2 of the Sherman Act and is considering penalties.
