Summary

The US Department of Justice (DOJ) is a federal executive department of the U.S. government, primarily responsible for the enforcement of federal laws and administration of justice. It was notably involved in a landmark antitrust case against Google, argued under the Donald Trump administration, where it successfully contended that Google maintained an illegal monopoly by paying substantial Traffic Acquisition Cost (TAC) to Apple. This ruling carries significant implications, including the potential for Apple to develop its own search engine and fueling debate about search algorithm bias.
