On September 16, 2026, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia unsealed the full 106-page remedies opinion by Judge Leonie Brinkema in the Justice Department's ad tech monopolization case against Google, two weeks after she first rejected the government's request to force a breakup. The order requires Google to build API integrations connecting its AdX ad exchange and DFP publisher ad server to the open-source Prebid bidding system, submit AdX bids to rival publisher ad servers on the same terms DFP receives, share real-time bid win-loss data with publishers, and publish documentation on how DFP selects auction winners. AdWords is barred from bidding preferentially into AdX, DFP or other Google ad tools. The remedies run six years, shorter than the fifteen the government sought, and apply worldwide. A court-appointed monitor and a technical committee will oversee compliance, with access to Google staff, records and source code. The court declined to order AdX's divestiture, a contingent sale of the rest of DFP, or restrictions on DV360, with Brinkema writing that distrust of Google alone is not a lawful basis for structural relief. Google said it disagrees with the underlying monopoly finding and will appeal. Parties must file a joint proposed final judgment, or separate competing versions, by October 2, 2026. India's Competition Commission separately ordered a probe in August 2025 into allegations that Google ties DFP to AdX (and to DV360), after a complaint from the Alliance of Digital India Foundation.
