Google Accused of Search Manipulation in Third Major Antitrust Lawsuit

A coalition of 38 states filed an antitrust lawsuit against Google Thursday focusing on the design of the tech giant’s search engine. It’s the third major antitrust lawsuit filed against the search giant this year. They accusedGoogle of anticompetitive behavior like designing its search engine in a way that leverages the company’s own products over those of its competitors.

Google responded by saying that redesigning search would harm users.
