The hits keep on coming for Google

Google created an illegal monopoly in the online advertising industry, a Federal judge ruled

According to the ruling, Big G pulled some anticompetitive shenanigans with ad servers and exchanges, and hurt publishers and users by doing so.

The Department of Justice argued that through acquisitions and anticompetitive conduct, Google seized control of the full advertising technology stack: the tools advertisers and publishers buy and sell ads and the exchange that connects them.

An appeal is coming.
