Please look up the definition of monopoly before throwing the word. Earlier part of your own sentence refutes the claim that google has a monopoly in ad. Further numbers: https://adage.com/article/digital/duopoly-loses-share-ad-spe...

I said „close to a monopoly“ to refer to the big market share of either of them, which is clearly the case as also written in your linked article.
