Google Antitrust

Google and Facebook being investigated for Antitrust suites is very interesting.  It is said that google is almost turning into a monopoly and controlling advertising pretty much for everything you search.  People should be able to use google for the truth of what is the best for the need they are searching for not the information that is giving them the most money in order to be shown.  It is Ironic that I am writing this post right now on google and now that I am actually paying attention to it I do seem to see more ads popping up all the time and in the past Advertisements were never really a thing I would see the second I connect to wifi or click on the google chrome app.

I don't know if this really breaks any amendments but it is a little disconcerting that everything we look up is really a just first come first serve in an ad perspective.  Facebook's issues are similar but not nearly on the scale of google case. Its been reported that google revenue last year was $137 Billion and income was $31 Billion which is a ridiculous amount of money.  It is said that this year google will control 31% digital ad dollars and Facebook is number too which would make sense why they are the two under investigation by the justice department.
