Competitive harm in a fucking antitrust proceeding, lol, lmao even

Look, I’m a trial judge. I am not anyone that understands the industry and the markets in the way that you do. And so I take seriously when companies are telling me that if I find against Alphabet, it’s going to cause competitive harm.
