U.S. Justice Department Proposes Google Chrome Sale

The proposal aims to address Google's search monopoly and could reshape the browser and AI markets.

The U.S. Department of Justice suggests Google sell its Chrome browser, valued at up to $20 billion, as part of antitrust remedies.
Judge Amit Mehta ruled Google has an illegal monopoly on search, prompting potential measures affecting AI and Android systems.
Chrome's sale could impact Google's advertising model, which leverages user data from the browser for targeted promotions.
The proposal includes licensing search data and uncoupling Android from other Google products to increase market competition.
Potential buyers like Amazon or OpenAI face scrutiny, with implications for AI innovation and global tech leadership.
