WASHINGTON—Saying the move sparked antitrust concerns, as well as fears about the increased concentration of power in fewer corporate hands, the Federal Trade Commission questioned Tuesday the merger of Google with the U.S. government.
government and Google may not be without its positive effects, but frankly we at the FTC are struggling to see what real benefits American consumers will derive from combining one of the nation’s largest search engine, online advertising, and cloud computing companies with one of the nation’s largest providers of social services and public education. The merger of Google’s ad division with the Pentagon alone raises some fairly serious ethical concerns.
Did the FTC not get the COVID vaccine yet? i felt fine with technology and big government after I got the shot, and bonus: I have a new-found, innate ability to track my own location. I'm not lost anymore!
it would probably be approved too lol
Well, hell! Isn't Google already in everything already?

Was it a merger? My recollection was that it was an outright purchase of the US Gov.
It was a hostile takeover not a merger

Too close to reality...
