Forced sale of Chrome on cards in big threat to Google
The US Justice Department (DOJ) wants to force Google to sell the Chrome browser as part of a remedy for its illegal search monopoly in a move that would undermine its control over search defaults and first-party data collection.
The DOJ began arguing for the forced sale Monday, US time, to the judge who last year made the momentous decision that Google had in fact built an illegal monopoly in search. Judge Amit Mehta is now hearing three weeks of arguments about remedies for that monopoly.
The DOJ submissions also include an end to search default deals that see Google paying billions to the makers of other browsers and devices, and opening up access to some of its data.
Why is a US government agency telling me what i know? And dont care about. Google built a mousetrap now these fools are saying the whole world is regulated by them and they want the mousetrap inventor to stop making great traps.
The USA is the worst country now.
