Google’s position:
“We disagree with the court’s decision and will appeal. People choose Google because they want to—not because they have to.”
While awaiting appeal, Google’s remedies focus on aligning with court findings while ensuring:
More flexibility for browser partnerships (e.g., multiple default search engines).
Options for device makers to preinstall multiple search engines.
Oversight that doesn’t compromise user privacy or stifle innovation.
What’s at stake? DOJ’s proposal risks hurting consumers by imposing excessive restrictions, sharing private data, and weakening the U.S. as a tech leader.
Google’s remedy says: Keep it fair. Keep it focused. Keep it innovative.
