Google suggests fixes to its search monopoly


Google proposed new limits after a judge ruled Google illegally crushed competition in search.

In August, US District Judge Amit Mehta ruled that Google illegally crushed its competition in search - a decision the company vowed to appeal. In a legal filing submitted Friday, Google said it should be allowed to continue entering into those contracts with other companies while widening the options it offers. The proposals stand in stark contrast to the sweeping remedies suggested last month by the US Department of Justice (DOJ), which recommended that Judge Mehta force the firm to stop entering into revenue-sharing contracts.
