Jury finds Google guilty of monopolistic practices in Epic Games lawsuit

A jury ruled Monday that Google had violated antitrust laws to extract fees and limit competition from Epic Games and other developers on its Play mobile app store, in a case that could rewrite the rules on how thousands of businesses make money on Google’s smartphone operating system, Android.

After deliberating for a little more than three hours, the nine-person federal jury sided with Epic Games on all the 11 questions in a month-long trial that was the latest turn in a three-year legal battle.
