Google isn't screwed. The law only applies to poor people, and cooperation aren't poor or people.

He identifies as an ad agency, I guess, because that's all these leaks are about: ads.

it's common sense that all major corporations are in collusion, including of course google and facebook, but they're kind of cocky to have it written up as policies that can then be leaked. I'd assume the CEOs and board members just knew how to talk to other people of power and make agreements, while not writing anything down so as not to leave evidence.

I'd like to know more about the first couple of revelations, namely, Jedi Blue, what he means by "market manipulation," and the whole Project Nera thing. Actually I'd like to know more about everything he writes about.

Regular google search works too. Jedi Blue was a deal with FB over splitting ad shares and giving themselves unfair advantages when bidding for serving ads. Google is saying something along the lines of it looks bad but this just facilitates normal operating. Basically they take the position that normies are too dumb to understand.
