Summary
Apple's senior vice president of services, Eddy Cue, is expected to testify in federal court regarding the U.S. Department of Justice's accusation that Google used licensing agreements to monopolize online search. Cue is expected to testify that Apple chose Google as the default search engine for the iPhone because it was the best product available. He will also state that Apple sees no reason to create its own search engine since Google already exists. Cue will mention that Apple has revenue-sharing agreements with competing search engines and that Apple users can change their default search engines. The trial is expected to last 10 weeks and is the biggest technology monopoly trial since the DOJ's case against Microsoft over 20 years ago.
