As many as 36 US states and Washington DC have filed a lawsuit against Google, alleging the company's control over its Android app store violates antitrust laws. Through a series of exclusionary contracts and other anticompetitive conduct in the Play Store, Google deprived Android users of robust competition that could lead to greater choice, innovation, and significantly lower mobile app prices, the lawsuit alleges.
