    Amazon and google? Great news indeed. A shame the google one is mostly done in secret

    Fuck these judges rigging the system in favor of monopolies.

    That google judge was very concerned disclosing earnings would reveal company secrets so they allowed google to hide them in the trial. But they are publicly traded and required to disclose earnings...

    In a partially redacted 172-page complaint, the FTC alleges that Amazon implemented an algorithm “for the express purpose of deterring other online stores from offering lower prices.”

    Any idea why it would be redacted?
