“Bundling” can be anticompetitive but is not at issue in the actual case the government has filed. Nor can I personally identify a meaningful bundle from google in the right sense. You may be using the word informally.
Would drive, docs and gmail be free if you divorced them from the ad revenue products?
If they are all free then it’s not a bundle in the antitrust relevant sense. Microsoft Teams is a great example of an anticompetitive bundle if you want one.

Also true.
This is exactly where the anticompetitive effects of bundling arise.
>> With Google, the products are paid for by the ad revenues instead of Windows and Office licenses.
That’s why it’s going to be impossible to argue that this is bundling in the anticompetitive sense.
Yes, probably. They all count against your 15 GB quota of free storage, after which you have to pay Google for more. It's basically the same model as Dropbox.
