America must not defang Europe’s new tech law, by @lutherlowe.bsky.social : “Big Tech lobbyists portray the DMA as anti-American. In reality, its goals align with American ideals of fair competition. This isn’t Europe versus America; it’s open markets versus closed ones”

@kint.bsky.social correctly points out two decisions criticizing Google spoliation. Plus two other cases where a decision is likely. And one where Google avoided a decision (because Viacom didn't pursue spoliation vigorously). Quotes & primary sources at www.benedelman.org/google-disco...

hey tech press. if Google pushes you towards a paid proxy or on background, don't let them argue this remedy is beyond scope by ignoring:
3. deny to the defendant the fruits of its statutory violation
4. ensure that there remain no practices likely to result in monopolization in the future.
Bam. There is it. US Department of Justice has filed - requesting divestiture of Chrome as a remedy for court's finding against Google. Android at risk, too. /1
