US DOJ asks judge to force Google to sell Chrome in partial breakup proposal

Source: Axios

“The Department of Justice is pushing for Google to sell its Chrome web browser after a landmark ruling found the tech giant had illegally abused its search monopoly. The proposal for a partial breakup of Google and an overhaul of the running of its Android mobile operating system, among other changes, would mark the biggest antitrust action in the U.S. in decades if it’s approved. Google has said it will appeal the federal judge’s August ruling that found the company had violated federal antitrust rules to maintain a monopoly in the online search market and the case will not be finalized before President-elect Trump takes office.” (11/21/24)
