The lawsuit was filed in a federal court in California on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>The suit alleges Google is unfairly forcing developers of mobile apps to pay 30 percent commission on sales of digital goods and services on its app store. Plaintiffs have said this practice violates anti-trust laws because Google acts as a monopolist in the Android app marketplace.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">First Amendment protections apply to all of us and they should be defended. <\/p>\n<p>Looking forward to continued conversations with <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JudiciaryGOP?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@JudiciaryGOP<\/a> so that we can pass meaningful legislation that increases transparency and holds Big Tech accountable. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/lxilSinLaY\">https:\/\/t.co\/lxilSinLaY<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Rep.
