The U.S. Department of Justice filed its long-awaited antitrust lawsuit against Google on Tuesday, accusing the tech giant of abusing its dominance in online search, and sparking a sense of d\u00e9j\u00e0-vu<\/em> in Europe.<\/p>\n

The DOJ complaint accuses Google of locking out competitors through contracts to preset Google as the default general search engine on billions of mobile devices and computers. Google called<\/a> the action \u201ca deeply flawed lawsuit that would do nothing to help consumers.\u201d<\/p>\n

A large part of the U.S. case is similar to the European Commission\u2019s Android decision<\/a>, in which Google was fined \u20ac4.34 billion in 2018 for using anticompetitive agreements to cement its dominant position as a search engine.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe DOJ\u2019s case seems to be a somewhat simplified version of the EC\u2019s Android case: an exclusive dealing, tying\/bundling case. But with more recent evidence,\u201d said Thomas Vinje, an antitrust lawyer at Clifford Chance who acted for FairSearch, the lead complainant in the European Android case.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe DOJ is looking at Google with a European eye,\u201d according to Johnny Ryan from the Irish Council for Civil Liberties. The U.S. action \u201crepeats many of the same issues previously tackled by the European Commission,\u201d Ryan said, alluding to the role of economies of scale, Google\u2019s ability to control distribution, and to data protection.<\/p>\n

The U.S. case shows \u201chow little has changed\u201d in the past 10 years, said Damien Geradin, a competition lawyer in Brussels. The U.S. action \u201cdeals with many concerns that were expressed to the European Commission as early as 2010,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The European Commission opened a first case against Google in 2010, arguing that the tech giant unfairly promoted its shopping service over rivals. In 2015, it opened<\/a> a second case and ruled<\/a> in 2018 that Google abused its dominant position in Android operating system to \u201ccement the dominance of its search engine.\u201d Brussels opened a third case in 2016 looking at how Google restricted<\/a> rivals from placing their search adverts on third-party websites.<\/p>\n

The DOJ \u201cneeds to learn a fundamental lesson from the European Commission\u2019s experience: It\u2019s one thing to find a major antitrust violation, but it\u2019s another to impose remedies that actually make any difference,\u201d said Vinje, the antitrust lawyer. <\/p>\n
