Vol. 2: 125 Years of Anti-Trust Lawsuits

This week, we’re launching our new series - Data Deep Dives, a dive into a dataset where we look at trends, patterns, and insights hiding that you don’t always see at first glance.

Think of it as peeling back the layers of the world’s most interesting datasets – without the jargon. Enjoy, and please give us your feedback!

Ever wondered what happens when a company becomes too powerful?

Enter antitrust lawsuits – and there’s more happening behind the scenes than you might think.

We dug into decades of data to uncover which industries are under the most pressure, who's filing these cases, and why it's a big deal for all of us (yes, even beyond those $1200 Taylor Swift tickets 🎟️).

In our latest data deep dive, we’ve charted out everything from the rise of non-DOJ lawsuits to which industries can’t seem to stay out of court (hint: manufacturing still takes the lead). Oh, and did we mention we've got interactive graphs and insights to bring it all to life?

👉 Check out the full story, including interactive visuals that break down what’s really going on.

Some highlights:

• Manufacturing still leads the pack: Over 700 antitrust cases and counting.

• Non-DOJ filings are on the rise: States are stepping in where the feds are slowing down.

• Biggest question? Why cases are dropping while DOJ funding keeps going up.

We scratched the surface of what’s really happening in the world of antitrust. Ready to dive deeper?

See you in the data!
