Way overdue but also required for the rest of the big tech companies. Look at how Google and others can lose billions on one failed product after the next - any smaller company would go bankrupt. Competition isn’t fair when one player can just afford to take risks and failures of that scale. And then there’s all the anti competitive aspects like network effects or bundling or whatever. We need all new laws around anti trust because a monopoly today looks different from a monopoly a hundred years back.

Please, could someone elaborate how a forced split would solve the problem? Behind the scenes still the same people isn't it?

Splitting of Youtube as a separate entity would be a great start. Maps needs to stay with search.

It's funny, since the "monopoly" decision, not sure exactly when, they seem to have pulled their finger off the scale of political candidate search results.
