WASHINGTON (September 2, 2025) — The Developers Alliance released the following statement in response to Judge Amit P. Mehta’s decision to impose changes on Google’s search business:
“We’re pleased Judge Mehta rejected the draconian structural remedies the DOJ requested in this case. Divesting Chrome and Android would have had disastrous consequences for web and app developers and the broader digital ecosystem.
“Developers are relieved that the political theater of this trial has ended. Arguing about search engine market share when dramatic and remarkable advances in AI were upending the industry was head-scratching at best.
