Google may be forced to sell off Chrome browser
The Guardian|November 20, 2024
US Department of Justice officials plan to ask a judge to force Google to sell its Chrome browser to dismantle the monopoly it has over the internet search market, in a major intervention against one of the world's biggest tech companies.

The department last month filed court papers saying it is considering enforcing "structural remedies" to prevent Google from using some of its products.

The DoJ will reportedly push for Google, which is owned by Alphabet, to sell the browser and also ask a judge to require new measures related to artificial intelligence as well as its Android smartphone operating system, according to Bloomberg.

Further, competition officials, along with a number of US states that have joined the case against the Silicon Valley company, plan to recommend that the federal judge Amit Mehta imposes data licensing requirements.

Google has said it will challenge any case by the DoJ and that the proposals marked an "overreach" by the government.
