Google Won’t Have to Sell Chrome Browser After All (But There’s a Catch)

Google has been found to be an illegal monopoly, but the company will not have to sell its Chrome browser as a result. Instead, Google will be required to share certain data with competitors to level the playing field. The ruling comes after a lengthy antitrust investigation, which found that Google had abused its dominant position in the search engine market. While the company will not be forced to divest its Chrome browser, it will have to provide rival search engines and browsers with access to certain data and APIs. This move is intended to promote competition and give users more choice when it comes to web browsers and search engines. However, there are concerns that the proposed remedies may not be sufficient to address the underlying issues of Google's market dominance. Overall, the ruling represents a significant development in the ongoing efforts to rein in the power of tech giants and ensure a more equitable digital landscape.
