Google may be forced to sell one of its biggest business, and world’s most popular browser

Google may soon face a major shakeup as the US Department of Justice (DOJ) plans to request a court order forcing its parent Alphabet to sell its Chrome internet browser. According to a report by Bloomberg, the department will ask judge Amit Mehta, who ruled in August that Google illegally monopolized the search market, to require measures related to artificial intelligence (AI) and its Android smartphone operating system.
The report quotes people familiar with the matter who said that antitrust enforcers want the judge to order Google to sell off Chrome — because “it represents a key access point through which many people use its search engine.”
