Aren’t they banned in China anyway?
Their search service is banned but they still have ad (AdMob and Google Ads) and developer services (GoLang, Firebase, Android, Tensorflow, etc) there. and their last customer-targeted service remaining are Google Chrome (www.google.cn/chrome) and a website directory Google 265 (www.265.com)
Got curious and went to the original page, and it is literally just one sentence vague announcement:
Due to Google’s alleged violation of the “Anti-Monopoly Law of the People’s Republic of China,” the State Administration for Market Regulation has lawfully initiated an investigation into Google.
Really not sure what they actually launched the antitrust probe for; this is just pure political drama lol
Edit: Okay, it is possibly because of Android dominance, but again, still a political drama
This is how it’s going to be for the next few years then?
Antitrust probe into a company whose products have been banned and shamelessly copied in every way possible is just so funny at this point that it is like ???
