(RALEIGH) Attorney General Josh Stein today released the following statement after he prevailed in his bipartisan antitrust lawsuit against Google related to the company’s search engine. A federal court found that Google violated antitrust law by illegally maintaining a monopoly over general search engine services and general search text ads.
“No company is too big to play by the rules. Today is a win for consumers and for healthy competition. I am pleased that we held Google accountable and can now focus on repairing the market and better protecting North Carolina consumers.”
