'U.S. Judge Releases Decision In Which She Declined To Require Breakup Of Google's Advertising Technology Business, Says Google And Justice Department Should Propose Final Judgment; Judge Says Google Should Appoint An Internal Compliance Officer, Given The 'Gravity' Of Its Antitrust Violations' - Reuters

A federal judge said Google GOOGL.O should appoint an internal antitrust compliance officer and make other changes to its advertising technology business, even though the Alphabet unit does not need to break up that business.

U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema in Alexandria, Virginia, gave her assessment in an opinion unsealed on Wednesday, two weeks after she rejected the U.S. Department of Justice's demand for a breakup. She had given both sides 14 days to seek redactions of confidential information.
