But US enforcement authorities could run into trouble prosecuting those cases due to a lack of qualified personnel and skeptical federal judges, said Reback, who represents companies that have made antitrust complaints with the FTC about some of the tech giants.The personnel problem is not a new one.
The Department of Justice seems to have the ability to conduct a thorough antitrust investigation, Reback said. But it's unclear whether it has the personnel in place to litigate a case against Alphabet or any of the other tech giants, he said. It may well have to bring in outside attorneys, just like it did with the Microsoft case, he said.
"Somebody has to try to explain to Republican judges that we're in an unprecedented situation here," Reback said. He continued: "Even if you come from the position that you don't like government intervention in the economy ... we have here a set of circumstances that is different than anything that we've experienced before and that really does need your attention."
What's more debatable is just how much farther legislators should go in trying to curb today's monopolists. For his part, Reback favors legislation such as that put forward by Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., that would essentially define a monopoly as a company that has more than 50% share of a particular market and would subject such companies' behavior to greater scrutiny.
