DOJ Considers $20 Billion Sale of Chrome Browser as Google Faces Antitrust Case
Nov 30, 2024, 11:00 AM
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is considering a forced sale of Google's Chrome browser as part of its antitrust case against the company, which is viewed as a monopolist in the online search market. Initial estimates place the value of Chrome at up to $20 billion. The DOJ's proposed remedies have sparked discussions about the potential impact on Google's market power, with some experts suggesting that prohibiting anticompetitive contracts might be a more appropriate solution. Google has criticized the DOJ's approach, labeling it a 'radical interventionist agenda' that could harm the U.S. tech industry and its global competitiveness.
