Google Proposes Fix to Solve Search Monopoly
Published On Dec 20, 2024, 10:28 PM
Google is responding to a recent court ruling that found it maintained a monopoly on online search. While the ruling called for significant changes, Google's proposal suggests that it should be allowed to continue its current practices of paying companies like Apple and Samsung for default search engine placement, though with less restrictive agreements. Google maintains that these adjustments will not harm privacy or security and will not undermine its position in global technology. The company plans to appeal the ruling in the coming year as well.

Despite the antitrust challenges, Google's proposal indicates that the company believes it can continue its market strategy with slight modifications. This may suggest resilience in its business model. However, ongoing legal challenges could introduce volatility in stock performance in the short term.
