The plaintiffs in the public trial, led by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, signed by the attorneys of Arkansas, Idaho, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota and Utah. The plaintiffs claimed that Google used its “monopolistic power” in internet ads to control prices and prevent competition.
Attorney General Paxton made a statement on the subject on his personal Twitter account; “This goliath of a company is using its power to manipulate the market, destroy competition and harm you the consumer.”
Google, on the other hand, described Paxton’s claims as “unfounded” and emphasized that internet advertising prices have fallen in the last 10 years, a sign of a competitive market.
“We will defend ourselves strongly in court against these baseless allegations,” the statement said.
Attorney General Paxton led the nonpartisan coalition that the 50 state and territory governments in the US. Formed in September 2019 to investigate whether there was a monopolistic orientation in Google’s business practices.
