Google Search Remedies Trial Begins Amid Meta Executives’ Testimony and DOJ Gemini Usage Claim in Washington D.C.

The ongoing antitrust legal proceedings against major technology companies Meta and Google continue to unfold in Washington, D.C. Last week featured the liability stages of Meta's breakup trial and Google's adtech-related breakup verdict. This week, the focus has shifted to the remedies phase of Google's search monopoly trial, which commenced on April 21, 2025, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Concurrently, Meta's liability trial proceeds, with notable testimony from executives including Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg. The U.S. government is seeking to break up Meta as part of its antitrust enforcement efforts. The Department of Justice (DOJ) has accused Google of repeating its previous search strategies to increase usage of its Gemini product, a point emphasized during opening statements. The trials represent a critical phase in the government's broader campaign to address alleged monopolistic practices by these tech giants. Additional events related to these cases, including the 2025 DCN Next Summit and further scheduling for Google's adtech remedies phase, are also underway.
