The Department of Justice has issued a revised proposed final judgment regarding Google's antitrust conviction, asserting the necessity for Google to divest its Chrome browser. The judgment closely mirrors demands from the Biden administration, including the insistence on enforcing minimal competition in search services. Notably, the revised proposal includes mandatory notification of future AI acquisitions. It outlines that monopolies, epitomized by Google, hinder consumer choice and threaten the marketplace, prompting stringent regulations against tech giants.
Through its sheer size and unrestricted power, Google has robbed consumers and businesses of a fundamental promise owed to the public - their right to choose among competing services.
Monopolies are incompatible with free markets and freedom more generally, the department added in its filing.
Pivotal to the demands issued by the DoJ in both the initial and revised proposed final judgment is that Google must be forced to sell off its Chrome browser.
The Trump Department of Justice filed a revised proposed final judgment making most of the same demands put forward by Biden's DoJ.
