that's even smaller than a microsoft who might be a new player in the industry, have to go and dislodge a major player like google? >> goldman says if the judge rules google is an illegal monopoly, there is a wide range of punishments. >> you could imagine mandating some kind of choice. you could prevent the distribution agreements altogether. you could impose significant financial consequences on this. you could require apple to do some other kind of competition or beauty show in order to pick its winner. >> goldman says the most extreme measure would be in order to break up google. but one concern is whether any remedies will hinder future growth in the industry. >> the technology will keep moving, but the remedy doesn't evolve and it gets out of sync. >> i did reach out to google and a spokesman told me that they had no comment today. >> it is expected that the judge will issue a ruling by late summer or early fall. >> greg. a lot of eyes on that ruling. jana katsuyama live in our newsroom. jana. thank you.
