Alphabet's Google asked a judge on Friday to postpone making the company share data with rivals while it challenges a ruling that the company holds an illegal monopoly in online search, according to court papers.

U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta in Washington ruled in 2024 that the company used unlawful tactics to maintain its dominance in online search. Google will urge a federal appeals court to reverse that ruling, it said in court papers on Friday.

So they waited 13 months to file in order to drag this out as long as possible? Assholes.
