Google has an illegal monopoly for online search, US judge rules in huge blow to tech giant

He also pointed out that Mehta concluded Google is the industry's highest quality search engine, particularly on mobile devices, after the judge said: 'Google is widely recognized as the best available in the United States'. Mehta's ruling focused on the billions of dollars Google spends every year to install its search engine as the default option on new cellphones and tech gadgets. Mehta's ruling focused on the billions of dollars Google spends every year to install its search engine as the default option on new cellphones and tech gadgets 'A forced divestiture of the search business would sever Alphabet from its largest source of revenue,' she added, referring to Google's parent company.
