50 US states will investigate Google's monopoly behavior


This investigation is not new to us as we have faced similar investigations in the past: Google

(PTI) Washington, Ta. September 10, 2019, Tuesday

50 US states have announced a potential monopoly on Google and the investigation of its monopoly in the online advertising market. The Attorney General of these states has stated that the Internet is not free due to Google's behavior.

Colombian Attorney General Carl Racine says different states and territories are launching an investigation into Google's potential monopoly behavior. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has said that Google dominates all aspects of advertising and search on the Internet. Many consumers believe that the Internet is free. Although we have found that Google's profit is $ 117 billion (Rs. 8 lakh 40 thousand crore), then where is the Internet free?

Google's headquarters is in California, United States of America. Google dismisses the allegations that its services in the United States help people and provide more options. Thousands of jobs and small businesses also help. Kate Walker, vice president of global affairs at Google, said on the new investigation that this is not new to us.

Earlier, the US Department of Justice also investigated against us. We answered well the questions we were asked at that time. We hope that the Attorney General will respond well to any questions that we ask.

We always work constructively with the regulators and will continue to do so in the future. It is worth mentioning that a group of American states also announced an investigation against Facebook last Friday. These states will investigate whether this giant social network site has taken appropriate steps to protect users' data.
