The Department of Justice is exploring remedies to address Google's anticompetitive conduct in search services, including potential structural remedies such as divestment of major assets.
The proposed remedies could involve breaking up Google, a move not seen since the breakup of AT&T in 1982, aiming to foster competition in search.
The court has established that Google’s dominance in areas like mobile search significantly limits competition, which is why structural remedies are being considered.
With the Chrome browser and Android OS, Google has control over distribution channels that discourages new competitors from emerging, according to the DOJ's filing.
