Google Faces Chrome Sale: Anger, Antitrust, and Monopoly Debate
In response to a Bloomberg report, Google vehemently opposes a Department of Justice proposal to force the sale of Chrome browser, arguing it would negatively impact consumers and businesses. This proposed remedy, to be presented to Judge Amit Mehta, follows his August ruling that Google holds an online search monopoly. Further, Google objects to additional proposed measures concerning its AI practices, Android OS, and data usage. The company contends these actions would undermine American technological competitiveness.
