DOJ Proposes Remedies in Google Antitrust Case, Including Potential Breakup of Chrome, Android, Play
Oct 9, 2024, 02:11 PM
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has outlined a series of potential remedies in its antitrust case against Google, focusing on the company's dominance in the online search market. The DOJ is considering structural changes, including the divestiture of Google's Chrome, Android, and Play services, to prevent the company from leveraging these platforms to maintain its search monopoly. Additionally, the DOJ is exploring measures to limit Google's use of contracts, monopoly profits, and other tools to control distribution channels. The DOJ's final proposal is due on November 20th. Google has criticized these proposals as 'radical and sweeping,' arguing that they could harm consumers, businesses, and developers. The potential breakup of Google could also impact the company's advancements in artificial intelligence and its overall profitability. The DOJ is also considering forcing Google to share users' search data with rivals and restrict its ability to use search results to train new AI models.
