联邦法院法官 Amit Mehta 驳回了 Chegg 和 Penske Media（旗下拥有 Rolling Stone 与 Variety）针对 Google AI Overviews 的两起反垄断诉讼。法官认定出版方对流量的期待不构成协议，只是搜索引擎的正常运作；两家出版方因订阅和授权费损失发生在其他市场，对 Google 搜索垄断问题也缺乏诉讼资格。
Another win for Google and AI
Federal Court judge dismissed 2 publisher antitrust suits over AI Overviews.
Judge Amit Mehta threw out claims from Chegg and Penske Media, owner of Rolling Stone and Variety.
Both argued that search runs on an unwritten trade, where publishers let Google crawl their pages and Google repays them with clicks that AI Overviews now keep.
Judge Mehta found no trade to enforce, writing that an expectation of traffic "is not an agreement," just the normal working of a search engine.
The publishers also lacked standing on Google's search monopoly, because their lost subscriptions and licensing fees fall in other markets.
