Judge Leonie Brinkema declined to force Google to sell its AdX ad exchange, ordering behavioural remedies instead, including an end to tying its publisher ad server to AdX and a compliance monitor.

The full 106-page opinion, unsealed Sep 16, sets a six-year worldwide judgment instead of the 15 years the Justice Department sought, and requires AdX bids to be available to rival ad servers. Google said it will appeal the liability ruling.
