Tech giant Google will be confronting a threat to its dominant search beginning Tuesday as federal regulators begin the second biggest antitrust trial United States of America has witnessed since the Microsoft trial. Over the course of next 10 weeks, federal lawyers and state attorneys will be trying to prove Google rigged the market in its favour by locking its search engine in as the default choice in various devices, stated a report in Associated Press.

Reportedly, US District Judge Amit Mehta is likely to issue a ruling only early next year; however, if he finds Google guilty of rigging, another trial shall ensue to decide what measures have to be taken to rein in the California-based company.
