Intro to Google for the Hill
Introduction to A company built on search Our mission Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. As a ﬁrst step to fulﬁlling this mission, Google’s founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin developed a new approach to online search that took root in a Stanford University dorm room and quickly spread to information seekers around the globe. The Google search engine is an easy-to-use, free service that consistently returns relevant results in a fraction of a second. What we do Google is more than a search engine. We also offer Gmail, maps, personal blogging, and web-based word processing products to name just a few. YouTube, the popular online video service, is part of Google as well. Most of Google’s services are free, so how do we make money? Much of Google’s revenue comes through our AdWords advertising program, which allows businesses to place small “sponsored links” alongside our search results. Prices for these ads are set by competitive auctions for every search term where advertisers want their ads to appear. We don’t sell placement in the search results themselves, or allow people to pay for a higher ranking there. In addition, website managers and publishers take advantage of our AdSense advertising program to deliver ads on their sites. This program generates billions of dollars in revenue each year for hundreds of thousands of websites, and is a major source of funding for the free content available across the web. Google also offers enterprise versions of our consumer products for businesses, organizations, and government entities.

GOOGLE LLC V. ORACLE AMERICA, INC
(Slip Opinion) OCTOBER TERM, 2020 1 Syllabus NOTE: Where it is feasible, a syllabus (headnote) will be released, as is being done in connection with this case, at the time the opinion is issued. The syllabus constitutes no part of the opinion of the Court but has been prepared by the Reporter of Decisions for the convenience of the reader. See United States v. Detroit Timber & Lumber Co., 200 U. S. 321, 337. SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES Syllabus GOOGLE LLC v. ORACLE AMERICA, INC. CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FEDERAL CIRCUIT No. 18–956. Argued October 7, 2020—Decided April 5, 2021 Oracle America, Inc., owns a copyright in Java SE, a computer platform that uses the popular Java computer programming language. In 2005, Google acquired Android and sought to build a new software platform for mobile devices. To allow the millions of programmers familiar with the Java programming language to work with its new Android plat- form, Google copied roughly 11,500 lines of code from the Java SE pro- gram. The copied lines are part of a tool called an Application Pro- gramming Interface (API). An API allows programmers to call upon prewritten computing tasks for use in their own programs. Over the course of protracted litigation, the lower courts have considered (1) whether Java SE’s owner could copyright the copied lines from the API, and (2) if so, whether Google’s copying constituted a permissible “fair use” of that material freeing Google from copyright liability. In the proceedings below, the Federal Circuit held that the copied lines are copyrightable.

Google-Doubleclick Case
Statement of FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION Concerning Google/DoubleClick FTC File No. 071-0170 The Federal Trade Commission has voted 4-11 to close its investigation of Google’s proposed acquisition of DoubleClick after a thorough examination of the evidence bearing on the transaction. The Commission dedicated extensive resources to this investigation because of the importance of the Internet and the role advertising has come to play in the development and maintenance of this rapidly evolving medium of communication.2 Online advertising fuels the diversity and wealth of free information available on the Internet today. Our investigation focused on the impact of this transaction on competition in the online advertising marketplace. The investigation was conducted pursuant to the Commission’s statutory authority under the Clayton Act to review mergers and acquisitions. If this investigation had given the Commission reason to believe that the transaction was likely to harm competition and injure consumers, the Commission could have filed a federal court action seeking to enjoin the transaction under Section13(b) of the Federal Trade Commission Act (“FTC Act”) and Section 15 of the Clayton Act. The standard used by the Commission to review mergers and acquisitions is set forth in Section 7 of the Clayton Act. That statute prohibits acquisitions or mergers, the effect of which “may be substantially to lessen competition, or to tend to create a monopoly.” The Commission can apply Section 7 (as well as Section 1 of the Sherman Act and Section 5 of the FTC Act) to challenge transactions that threaten to create, enhance, or facilitate the exercise of market power.
