A federal judge ordered a major makeover of Google's search engine but rebuffed the U.S. government's request to break up the company.
The ruling will likely ripple across the technological landscape at a time when the industry is being reshaped by the arrtificial Intelligence breakthroughs.
While there are new straints on some of the tactics the company deployed to drive traffic to its search engine and other services.
The judge stop short of banning multi billion dollar deals that Google has been making for a year to lock in its search engine as the default on smart devices.
Google will also not be force to sell its popular Chrome browser.
