Google has few political allies and a history of complaints, so an antitrust case may move quickly
Since the news broke, many have compared the Google investigation to a years-long federal investigation into Microsoft two decades ago.
Silicon Valley antitrust lawyer Gary Reback, who spearheaded efforts that led to the government's antitrust case against Microsoft and has worked with some clients who have complained about Google, and Rutgers Law School professor Michael A. Carrier agree that any Google investigation will probably be front-loaded, meaning it will move faster than the Microsoft case.
"If they were starting from scratch, it could take years," Reback said, "but they now have more information."
