Google hid evidence by training workers to avoid words monopolists use, DOJ says

The Department of Justice kicked off its antitrust trial against Google this week .

The DOJ argued that Google knew it would be scrutinized as a monopoly.

Google allegedly worked to hide any sketchy-sounding activity that could trigger antitrust scrutiny.

Among words and phrases that Google employees were trained to avoid were "market share," "scale," "network effects," "leverage," "lock up" and "tie".
