Previewing Google's upcoming antitrust ad tech trial

We’re just a week away from the start of the U.S. government’s antitrust trial against Google, the second one taking place this year. This case alleges that the company is illegally monopolizing the ad tech market.

The trial comes hot on the heels of another DOJ antitrust case. That verdict in August charged Google with monopolizing the search engine market. In the lead up to this second trial, the Department of Justice has unsealed a number of documents that offer a glimpse into how Google talked about its own products.

Jason Kint, CEO of Digital Content Next, joins The Current Report to preview the case.
