In 2018, “60 Minutes” delved into the immense power of Google, which had secured a staggering 90% market share in internet search and search advertising. The report, conducted by Steve Kroft, raised concerns about Google’s business practices, with some critics accusing the tech giant of engaging in anticompetitive behavior.
Fast forward to today, and those concerns appear to have been validated with a federal judge recently ruling that Google has indeed maintained an illegal monopoly over online search. This landmark antitrust decision underscores the real power that Google holds in shaping the digital landscape and raises important questions about the impact of such dominance on competition and innovation.
