The move comes from the American Economic Liberties Project, an influential Washington-based anti-monopoly group whose founder is working with the president-elect’s transition team.

Sarah Miller’s report is being seen as a potential influence on Biden and could put the fear of God into  Big Tech.

The group urged that the U.S. Justice Department make clear it will continue antitrust action against Google by expanding the scope of litigation beyond search to maps, travel and its app store.

The report calls on the Biden administration to appoint aggressive Justice Department and FTC antitrust enforcers and urges Biden’s attorney general nominee, Merrick Garland, to “publicly commit to seeking a Google breakup.”

“The anti-monopoly movement is really young. We wanted to lay out a vision that people in a new administration can rally around and can use as a clear roadmap for not only what’s possible but what’s necessary,” Miller wrote.

Backers of this view want antitrust enforcement to move away from the prevailing standard which only looks at whether consumers are benefiting from lower prices.

The report encourages antitrust agencies to challenge mergers involving a powerful buyer and calls for regulators to stop entering settlements with companies that do not require them to admit wrongdoing.

Among other recommendations it wants to do away with non-compete clauses in work arrangements and end conflicts of interest by stopping companies from operating and competing on the same platform. For example, Amazon.com Inc operates a third-party, seller-driven marketplace where it also competes.

The report also urges the FTC to prioritise bringing an antitrust case against Amazon for hurting competitors.
