On July 7, 2021, a number of state Attorneys General filed an antitrust complaint against Alphabet Inc. (“Alphabet”), Google LLC (“Google”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alphabet, and certain related subsidiaries in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging that Google’s operation of Android and Google Play violated U.S. antitrust laws and state antitrust and consumer protection laws. Google believes the complaint is without merit and will defend itself vigorously.
