- Microsoft’s CEO, Satya Nadella, has testified at Google’s antitrust trial.
- Nadella claims Google’s status as the default search engine has crushed Bing as a business and product.
- Nadella also claims his company was willing to give up billions to have Bing as the default search engine on Apple devices.
Back in 2022, we reported that the Department of Justice (DOJ) was looking to take Google to court over its deals to make its search engine the default on most browsers and all US smartphones. That trial is now underway, and Microsoft’s CEO had something surprising to say about Bing, Google, and Apple in his testimony.
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella was one of the first people to testify today at Google’s antitrust case. As reported by The Verge, Nadella told a narrative that painted Google as an insurmountable obstacle in its efforts to build a competitive search engine. He described Google’s status as the default search option as something that has crushed Bing as a business and product.
