Case filed on Google regarding the search

Technology News : After Europe and America, Japan and Australia also hinted at challenging the monopoly of tech companies like Google.

Google's answer - We did not force anyone, people use to search on their own.

In the US, the Justice Department and 11 states have filed a case on Google, the most used search engine. He is accused of illegally making exclusive deals with Apple and smartphone makers to eliminate competition and establish his monopoly.

This is the largest lawsuit against a technology firm in over two decades. Earlier in 1998 a similar lawsuit was also filed against Microsoft. By the way, accusations have been made on Google before. Australia and Japan are also set to challenge the monopoly of big tech companies, along with Europe and America.

The Justice Department in the US and 11 different states have filed this antitrust case against Google. The 64-page complaint alleges that Google had exclusive deals to acquire more than 90% market share in the search engine business. This made Google the default search engine for users on these devices.

Google paid billions of dollars to mobile makers, carriers, and browsers from their advertising revenue to make Google a pre-set search engine on their devices. This secured Google the top position on millions of devices.

It is also alleged that Apple and Google resorted to each other and outshone their competitors. About half of Google's search traffic in the US came from Apple's iPhones. At the same time, a fifth of Apple's profits came from Google.
