Report an Antitrust Violation
www.ftc.gov
If you have a question or comment about an antitrust issue, submit it to the Bureau of Competition by one of the methods below.

So as I understand it, Google’s using it’s monopoly market position to force web “standards” unilaterally (without an independent/conglomerate web specification standards where Google is only one of many voices) that will disadvantage its competitors and force people to leave its competitors.

I’m not a lawyer, and I’m a fledgling tech guy, but this sounds like abuse of a monopoly. Google which serves 75% of the world’s ads and has 75% of the browser market share seems to want to use its market power to annihilate people’s privacy and control over their web experience.

So we can file a complaint with FTC led by Lina Khan who has been the biggest warrior against abuse by big tech in the US.

We can also file a complaint with the DOJ:

And there have to be EU, UK, Indian, Chinese, and Japanese organizations that we can file antitrust complaints to.

    Antitrust regulations have been neutered in the US since the Reagan administration, which is how we have not only unfettered tech monopolies, but telecommunications regional monopolies and a national oligopoly (that is, an organized cartel, but legal)

    Since most federal regulatory departments are captured, and serve their industries rather than the public. Mileage may vary re: state regulations.
