Like everyone else, I have been following the news of Google’s troubles. It has been deemed a search engine monopoly—not that we needed a judge to come to that conclusion. Google’s various trials have revealed some amazing details. For example, Google paid Apple $20 billion in 2022 to be the default search engine in the Safari browser. 

That is about $1.67 billion a month. 

In comparison, between 2020 and 2023, Google paid Samsung $8 billion to make Google Search, the Play Store, and Google Assistant the default on Samsung’s mobile devices. That is about $223 million a month over four years. While I understand that comes with desktop installation, the difference between the monthly payments is pretty astounding.
