Facing battles to combat monopoly New Uncertainty: Trump

Almost every major American technology giant is defending the anti -monopoly claims by government, and they all hope to have a comfort from their new opponent: Trump administration.

Recent calls came from Google Alphabet’s Google (Googl, Googl). Last week, I asked Trump’s newly employed Ministry of Justice to cancel the Biden era request to force the Google judge to his Chrome web browser mainly.

The new Google request for Doj, previously reported by Bloomberg, depends on national security concerns. The protection of cybersecurity from Google is integrated into sensitive data such as passwords and digital portfolios through their consumer products and business technology widely used, including Chrome.

“We routinely meet with the organizers, including with the Ministry of Justice to discuss this issue,” said a Google spokesman. “As we said publicly, we are concerned that the current proposals will harm the American economy and national security.”

It is not the only valley that occurred in the Silicon Valley that took place at the intersection of the government. Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN) and Meta (Meta) against their anti -monopoly claims, some of which involve similar claims as Google.

Mark Zuckerberg Meta in the next stage of trial, starting from April 14, opposite the Federal Trade Committee.

The final decision on what is happening will be for the $ 2 trillion -dollar Google Empire in the hands of the Federal Judge Amit Mihta, who died last August that Google illegally monopolizes the online markets for “general research” and “general research text”.

Listening sessions to decide on treatments in this case are scheduled for April and May. Final recommendations from the government and Google because of the judge today, which gives Doj led by Trump a last opportunity to change the former Biden era’s proposal to the judge that Google is dismantled.

“The Ministry of Justice Biden has suggested what I call the treatment pasta against the wall.”

“The problem is if the Ministry of Justice is following these wide -ranging treatments, and with the risk of losing loss.”

He added that tension for the Trump administration is that he is participating in an existential battle with China for the future of major technologies, including artificial intelligence, and the Google Mother Company can be an important weapon for the United States.

“What will we do, and one of the main contestants in the United States gave in this race by dismantling that company? It seems exciting to do so.”

Google’s research state is not the only issue that you may need to negotiate with the new Ministry of Justice.

He is also a defender in the American monopoly case that concluded in the Virginia Province Court last year for the government’s claim that it had illegally prevented competitors from the online advertising technology market. This case is awaiting the judge’s decision.

Anti -monopoly experts have expressed mixed views on whether the anti -monopoly port in Trump will become lighter than their ancestors on technology.

These questions may be more difficult to answer during the generation of Slater, Trump’s choice to lead the Ministry of Justice, has not yet been confirmed.

This leaves this week’s decision regarding what must be recommended in the Google case to the Assistant Prosecutor of Anti -Anti -Anti -Anti -Anti -Anti -Anti -Anti -Anti -Agreement, who is responsible until the Senate signs Slater.

Trump said in a statement issued in December announcement of the appointment of Slater on the truth platform.

Trump added: “I was proud to fight these violations in my first state, and the Anti -Monopathic Team of the Ministry of Justice will continue this work under the leadership of Gail,” Trump added.

The first Trump administration was a Google lawsuit at first due to the fight against monopoly. During the first Trump administration, FTC sought to acquire Meta (Meta) and WhatsApp, which led to the case now appointed to trial in April.

The first Trump administration also launched a Appl (Appl), which prompted the Biden administration to prosecute the iPhone maker last year. This case was not appointed to trial.

Trump has sent some mixed messages about the extent to which he wants to hold technology companies accountable.

During his campaign, he was asked if he supports Google’s disintegration as an antidote to unhealthy competition in the search engine market. Trump has suggested that a Google penalty could be accomplished without forcing it to sell parts of its empire.

“What you can do without dismantling it is to make sure it is more fair,” Trump said in an interview on October 15. The former president described the Google search engine as “forged” and expressed concern that the consequences of Google in the case may prefer China.

“In my talks with him, he is definitely focused on American competitiveness, especially in technology, including artificial intelligence,” said Google Sundar Pichai.

When asked at the top of the New York Times if the Trump election had changed the dynamics of the fight against Google, he said: “This is the issue of the Ministry of Justice, and the case is already in court,” noting that it started in the first period of Trump’s state.

“So I have no specific visions of it.” He added that the company “will defend ourselves there.”

What in the end can have giant effects on other big names in the world of technology.

Apple tried and failed to interfere in Google to protect her multiple contracts with Google. Those contracts, which the judge can also back down, guarantee iPhone and other virtual Apple devices for Google Search.

Even Google’s artificial intelligence company, anthropology, wants to reduce the consequences of the technology giant.

In a file of the last court, the emerging company asked the judge to supervise the case to allow it to present a friend of the brief court in detail how Google’s borders could affect the race to develop artificial intelligence.

So far, the Ministry of Justice has been subjected to Trump to this request, as it asked the judge not to allow the anthropologist to inject his own views of the conflict.

Some technology giants face a different government enemy: the Federal Trade Committee.

This is the case with Meta, where FTC claims that the social media giant used its Instagram and WhatsApp operations to stifle the competition in the market for “personal network services” such as its platforms such as its companies, Facebook, Instagram, and third parties such as Snapchat.

FTC asked the California Federal Provincial Court James James Boasberg to relax on the acquisition based on the allegations that, under dead control, are harmful to consumers.

This experiment begins next month.

Amazon also manipulates FTC in one of three claims against the government’s monopoly against it. Two cases were appointed to trial in 2026. One is scheduled to start by FTC and 17 state lawyers in the US District Court of Western Region in Washington in October of that year.

The lawsuit claims that Amazon has illegally enlarged prices on Amazon.com by punishing the sellers whose prices have decreased, and banning sellers who rejected the Amazon Prime sales service.

In November, a professor of law at North Western Andrew Stolmman Yahoo told North that he expected that “Yahya” FTC and stripped him of his authority to implement competition laws in the country so that companies with cases underway are already lighter consequences.

“I think technology companies will be major winners,” Stolmann said.
