On January 24, the United States Justice
Department, along with eight states,
filed an antitrust suit against Google.
.
'Time' reports that the suit aims
to smash the tech giant's alleged monopoly
on the online advertising ecosystem.
.
The suit argues that Google's control of online
advertising presents a hurtful burden to advertisers,
consumers and even the U.S. government.
According to the government, Google has asserted
its dominance through neutralizing or eliminating
rivals and forcing advertisers to use its products.
While speaking at a January 24 press conference,
Attorney General Merrick Garland said, , “for 15 years, Google has pursued
a course of anti-competitive conduct.”.
According to Garland, Google's efforts have halted
the rise of rival technologies and manipulated
the mechanics of online ad auctions.
First, Google controls the technology used
by nearly every major website publisher
to offer advertising space for sale.
, Merrick Garland, United States Attorney General, via 'Time'.
Second, Google controls
the leading tool used by advertisers
to buy that advertising space, Merrick Garland, United States Attorney General, via 'Time'.
And third, Google controls the largest
ad exchange that matches publishers
and advertisers together each
time that ad space is sold, Merrick Garland, United States Attorney General, via 'Time'.
'Time' reports that the suit
was filed in federal court
in Alexandria, Virginia.
Mexico to Sue Google. In a recent development, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has expressed strong opposition to Google's decision to rename the "Gulf of Mexico" as the "Gulf of America" on its Maps platform for U.S. users. This change aligns with an executive order issued by U.S. President Donald Trump, which also included reverting Denali's name back to Mount McKinley.
President Sheinbaum criticized the renaming, emphasizing that the "Gulf of Mexico" has long been internationally recognized. She highlighted that under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, a country's sovereignty extends only up to 12 nautical miles from its coastline, implying that the U.S. cannot unilaterally rename the entire Gulf. Sheinbaum warned that Mexico might file a civil suit if Google does not revert to the original name, noting that legal preparations are underway

President Donald Trump has made a shocking move by dismantling the U.S. Justice Department’s task force that targeted Russian oligarchs and enforced sanctions against the Kremlin’s elite. The decision, which comes as part of a shift in focus to combating drug cartels and international gangs, has sparked outrage from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The now-disbanded Task Force KleptoCapture was originally established to weaken Russian financial networks following Moscow’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Critics argue that Trump’s action benefits Putin and undermines efforts to hold Russian elites accountable. Stay tuned for reactions and geopolitical implications.
