didn't look on to the front runners vaccine oxford university also sent it up or should vaccine is the one that have received the major concerns and terms of pauses in terms of having safety concerns and now having any well learned here. but a bit in the phase 3 trial which is the last 'd a trial i think that is really concerning i don't think them but the real question will come about the person has been vaccinated or was in the police at booker oak because i would be determinative for really seeing if the safety is good enough to come to trial or not but looking really onto 'd the onto the trial continuation because brazilian government approved to carry on the trial meaning that probably the person has been in the pilot supergroup but a game the question is not about that the transparency in providing all that information public headaches is meant taint a lot because if it doesn't it's really hard to interpret what we have any is the actual situation on the ground. the u.s. justice department has filed

to not because they're forced to or because they can't find alternatives this lawsuit would do nothing to help consumers to the contrary it would artificially prop up lower quality search alternatives raise phone prices and make it harder for people to get the search services they want to use what google has done is build themselves centrally a couple of different forms of monopoly is within the marketplace one of them specifically though is with the android operating system which they say not only has google you know dominance in terms of being the largest operating system in the world but defaults that system to create google as the search they also also dominate the advertising market for online advertising as you know about 80 to 90 percent of all online advertising goes through directly through google and so the idea is that google has used an optimize its search engine its enjoyed operating system to be able to create market dominance and it's not necessarily because the public loves google so much as it is the fact that google has found a way to make themselves really the primary search engine online when it comes to
