Google and the Justice Department have made their opening salvos in court.
The government is trying to make this case about Google imposing control over a market, with DOJ counsel Julia Tarver Mason Wood arguing that “Google acquired its way to success.”
Google, meanwhile, says the suit is about the government unlawfully forcing it to deal with rivals. It claims it’s not consolidating three markets, just working in one market with a buy and sell side.
