The Department of Justice told a federal judge it is considering recommending that Google be forced to sell off parts of its operations in what would be a historic antitrust breakup.
So stoked. Both the breakup and the data remedy are essential to breaking this monopoly permanently. Death to Google
Yea wish I had your optimism. Hopefully the judgement isn't that they clearly violated dozens of laws over the course of decades and so they have to do 40 hours of community service.
And that happened with the banks because Obama won which was actually way worse and left way more people in ruin; I wouldn't hold your breath. "because bush won" is a big too much credit to either side for being different. They are all financed by these groups and have their cabinets and advisory boards tied to these groups and google is one of the largest institutions in the state department and intelligence apparatuses. And even if anything does happen (if), I'm betting it's going to be a sleight of hand actively overseen by google executives and their advisory-counces-to-government

That's exactly what happened with Microsoft in 2001 because Bush won
