that Google abused antitrust law to assert dominance over other search platforms. The judgment came after a 10-week trial last year in the case, which began when the Justice Department and states sued the company in 2020.Google, which handles 90% of global internet searches, was found culpable because it paid other companies — such as smart phone giants Apple and Samsung — billions of dollars to allow Google to automatically handle searches on those platforms.
