Justice Department pushes ahead with antitrust case against Google, questions ex-employee on deals

The U.S. Justice Department continued its pursuit of the antitrust case against Google on Wednesday, interrogating a former employee of the search engine giant regarding the deals he was involved in negotiating with phone companies during the 2000s.

Chris Barton, who was employed at Google from 2004 to 2011, testified that he prioritized negotiations for Google to become the default search engine on mobile devices.

In return, phone service providers or manufacturers were offered a portion of the revenue generated from user clicks on ads, the Associated Press reported.
