Marketing Brew has compiled key moments from Wednesday\u2019s proceedings below.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__StyledText-sc-1ef9199a-8 zNSXu\"><strong>Two sides of the same coin:<\/strong> While Google is against divesting its ad exchange AdX or DFP, the DOJ sought to drive home why it might be needed. It called Harvard economics professor Robin S. Lee to the stand and probed him on proposed remedies.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lee seemed to have proposed that those remedies might not resolve the persistent competitive harms that the company poses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"dist__StyledText-sc-1ef9199a-8 zNSXu\">However, during Google\u2019s cross-examination of Lee, he appeared to suggest that a divestiture of AdX or DFP might not prevent market monopolization on its own.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__StyledText-sc-1ef9199a-8 zNSXu\"><strong>Take it easy:<\/strong> If the court does order Google to divest some of its ad products, the level of ease with which such a transaction could be executed was disputed. Both sides questioned Paul Crisci, a former UBS banker and an M&amp;A advisor, about how that might work.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Crisci appeared to suggest that both AdX and DFP would be attractive M&amp;A targets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"dist__StyledText-sc-1ef9199a-8 zNSXu\">Stay tuned for Marketing Brew\u2019s coverage of Thursday\u2019s proceedings.<\/p>\n<div class=\"style__InlineSubscribeWrapper-sc-9b30af34-1 xBGLJ inline-subscribe\">\n<div class=\"style__RoundedContainer-sc-bac6188c-0 jnRTsW\">\n<h5 class=\"inline-subscribe\">Get marketing news you&#8217;ll actually want to read<\/h5>\n<p class=\"inline-subscribe\">Marketing Brew informs marketing pros of the latest on brand strategy, social media, and ad tech via our weekday newsletter, virtual events, marketing conferences, and digital guides.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketingbrew.com\/stories\/2025\/09\/25\/day-3-google-ad-tech-antitrust-trial?utm_source=&#038;utm_medium=syndication&#038;utm_campaign=feed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At one point during day three of the remedy phase of United States v.
