50 US states and territories launch antitrust probe into Google’s ‘potential monopolistic behavior’ – GeekWire: Attorneys general from 50 U.S. states and territories launched an investigation into Google to find out whether the tech giant violates antitrust laws. A handful of them announced the probe Monday at a press conference on the steps of the Supreme Court.
