Alphabet claims the US needs Google in its complete form to compete with its primary competitor, China, while simultaneously defending national security.
This trial follows the judge’s decision regarding the remedies for Google, which has established a monopoly in the internet search market, the fundamental market for every business in the technology industry.
Google, like Microsoft, faced one of the most significant antitrust cases in the technology sector over twenty years ago.
The US Government has proposed unbundling Google’s Chrome browser, which means the company must open its search data to competitors. Google is eager to respond to this suggestion, published on its blog, that it is not in the best national interest for the US, and even less so for the global landscape, as the emphasis on competition for world domination in artificial intelligence intensifies.
In the first paragraph of its post, Google referred to China’s DeepSeek as a developing AI contender. The suggestion by the Department of Justice would, Mulholland claims, “restrict the ways we can create AI, and have a government-sanctioned board control the governance of our services.”
He adds, “That would stifle American innovation at a crucible moment. We’re precipitously competing internationally with China for the successor of technological leadership, and Google is leading the battalion of American entities executing scientific and technological innovation.”
