Description

In a historic decision, a federal judge has ruled that Google is a monopoly and that the tech giant has been using its market power illegally to quash competition. The ruling marks one of the biggest wins for the Department of Justice over Big Tech in at least 20 years.

Host Martine Powers speaks with tech policy reporter Eva Dou about the details of the case and how it could change Google. Also, what the decision could mean for other tech giants like Apple and Microsoft, as well as startups.

Today’s show was produced by Ali Bianco, with help from Elana Gordon. It was edited by Monica Campbell and mixed by Sean Carter. Thanks to Trinity Webster-Bass and James Graff.
