Regulators want to impose restrictions designed to prevent Android from favoring its search engine, and to ban Google from forging multibillion-dollar deals to lock in its dominant search engine as the default option on Apple’s iPhone and other devices.

A federal judge on Monday ruled that Google’s ubiquitous search engine has been illegally exploiting its dominance to squash competition and stifle innovation.

During its World Wide Developers Conference Monday, Apple previewed features designed to soup up the iPhone and other popular products with technology already available on rival devices.

The decision to turn off the blood-oxygen sensor for consumers who buy either the Apple Watch Series 9 or Ultra 2 in the U.S. came after a federal appeals court refused to extend an order that had allowed the watches to remain in stores during a battle over the rights to some of the technology.

The company has agreed to several other concessions to settle allegations it stifled competition against its Android app store.

Google on Monday confronted the second major U.S. antitrust trial in two months to cast the internet powerhouse as a brazen bully that uses its immense wealth and people’s dependence on one of its main products to stifle competition.

The regulators voted to approve rival services from Cruise and Waymo to operate the around-the-clock service.

Apple on Monday unveiled a long-rumored headset that will place its users between the virtual and real world, while also testing the technology trendsetter’s ability to popularize new-fangled devices after others failed to capture the public’s imagination.

Starting now, anyone borrowing a Netflix login in the U.S. will have to get their own account or pay $7.99 a month.

Lawyers on opposing sides drew the starkly different portraits of Musk for a nine-person jury that will hear the three-week trial.

A nine-person jury was seated to hear a trial that will determine whether Tesla CEO Elon Musk cheated investors by asserting in 2018 tweets that he had lined up financing to take the electric automaker private.

In just the first half of 2020, Apple, Google, Facebook and Microsoft together fielded more than 112,000 data requests from local, state and federal officials.

A trial opening Monday threatens to upend Apple’s iron control over its app store, which brings in billions of dollars each year while feeding more than 1.6 billion iPhones, iPads, and other devices.

Apple is following through on its pledge to crack down on Facebook and other snoopy apps that secretly shadow people on their iPhones in order to target more advertising at users.

The suit alleges that Google has an illegal monopoly over the online search market that hurts consumers and advertisers.
