Bam. Tip of hat to DOJ for not waiting until midnight to post its final proposed remedies for US v Google I. Plus, DOJ posted an exec summary and redline version. Bravo. All as expected including Chrome divestiture and future proofing for AI. Here is what publishers came for:

I had a theory from the Google leaks: The HCU is not about content. It's about brand:links ratio. I've looked at the last 3 updates, ~2m keywords, and tens of thousands of sites, trying to prove it. Results are a lot clearer than I expected.
