A federal judge on Tuesday ordered Google to overhaul its search engine practices in a bid to rein in its illegal monopoly but refused to break up the company.
Google avoided a breakup order after U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta ruled it had created an illegal monopoly, with his ruling outlining steps to loosen the company’s grip on online searches. Mehta imposed new restrictions on how Google steers traffic to its products but stopped short of banning the multi-billion-dollar default search deals that helped cement its power.
