RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein has released a statement after prevailing in a bipartisan lawsuit against Google related to its search engine.

According to the state attorney general’s office, a federal court found that Google violated antitrust law by illegally maintaining a monopoly over general search engine services and general search text ads.

“No company is too big to play by the rules,” Stein said in his statement. “Today is a win for consumers and for healthy competition. I am pleased that we held Google accountable and can now focus on repairing the market and better protecting North Carolina consumers.”
