The Department of Justice is considering whether to ask to break Google up as part of its antitrust lawsuit against the tech giant that a judge has already rule

d in its favor on.

“For more than a decade, Google has controlled the most popular distribution channels, leaving rivals with little-to-no incentive to compete for users,” DOJ lawyers wrote in the filing. “Fully remedying these harms requires not only ending Google’s control of distribution today, but also ensuring Google cannot control the distribution of tomorrow.”

In a blog post, Google called the DOJ’s proposal “radical” and argued that it went way beyond the scope of the judge’s ruling. Competitors have argued that Google’s exclusive contracts should be restricted to level the playing field.“Google likes to claim everyone chooses Google,” Weinberg wrote. “But most consumers don’t: They just go with the default.”
