Google’s Commitments and Designer Antitrust
In this episode, we dive into Google’s latest antitrust commitments in Europe. In June, we saw commitment decisions on Google’s ad-tech stack and its planned ‘Privacy Sandbox’ (under French and UK competition authorities’ oversight) as well as voluntary changes to the Android choice screen (overseen by the European Commission since 2018). We examine what this less adversarial approach from Google signifies, and how authorities are engaging in ‘designer antitrust’ by putting forward ever-more detailed fixes.
