the department of justice has been seeking to break google up for years.   d_states_v._google_llc_(2023) the only reason they couldn't do it earlier was because the laws on the books (written by republicans, mind you) tied their hands with respect to the charges they could bring, so they had to wait to build a solid case within the confines of the law. otherwise google would easily win, or they would circumvent the judgment like microsoft ultimately did.   you are so naive. you think gutting the federal government won't lead to a power vacuum that will be filled by the same corporations that have the means and the profit motive to do far worse to us than data harvesting. > then use a newly renovated department of justice  i thought you said the private sector can do everything better than the government? what purpose does this reformed doj serve in your libertarian paradise with a non-existent federal government? now you say you want big government to go after the companies that you don't like? sounds like you're just a hypocrite that wants to use the cudgel of government power to go after people you don't like.
