There's no question that Google is the dominant internet search engine in the world ... after all, "Googling" has become an accepted verb.

But today, a federal judge concluded that Google has engaged in several illegal practices to maintain that search dominance ... and ruled in favor of the Justice Department in an antitrust lawsuit.

KNX News chief correspondent Charles Feldman talked with Elise Phillips, lead policy counsel at the free market advocacy group Public Knowledge.  

She says that this legal fight is far from over.

The judge in the case acknowledged that Google's search engine is the best performing one on the internet ... 

BUT he says being best doesn't justify acting as a monopoly that performs about 90-percent of the world's internet searches.
