Canada Sues Google Over Online Ad Monopoly
In short, Canada’s Competition Bureau is suing Google for alleged anti-competitive practices in online advertising, seeking a court order forcing the sale of two ad tech tools and financial penalties. The Bureau alleges Google abused its dominant market position to maintain its power. Google counters that the complaint overlooks robust competition and the benefits its ad tech provides to businesses and websites. This action mirrors a similar U.S. Department of Justice lawsuit, though Google contests those claims as well.
